1st Step

Synopsis

1ST STEP is both a VR documentary and “fairy tale”, telling the magical story of a dream come true: the Apollo missions. Starting with the elevator driving up alongside the steaming rocket and a look inside the cramped capsule of the command module, the impressive launch of the Apollo 11 up to its return can be experienced from a new perspective.
