OFF WE GO (Поехали!) takes us to a Soviet psychiatric institution for the politically radical, where a cosmonaut and a homeless youth find themselves waiting for some chance at the outside world again while having to deal with the institution's relentlessly insistent head doctor and an apparatchik who just wants some alone time while determined to break their faith. Inspired by Soviet and Eastern European cinema of the 60s and 70s, this story asks two major questions to both our company and our audience, can a sick country heal its people? Is it possible to be well inside of a system that is sick/broken? As four operators within the system meet in the worst of circumstances they find themselves on the brink of ineffable change.
