While the Stars Burn

These two companion posters promote a cinematic sci-fi drama based on the novel "Once in Space" (Однажды в космосе), blending cosmic mystery with human introspection. Both posters share a central space exploration theme but evoke different emotional tones through their visual palettes.

Left Poster: "We Loved the Stars"

A solitary astronaut floats in the vastness of space, surrounded by nebulous swirls of fire and emerald galaxies. The text in elegant cursive reads:

"Мы любили звёзды, а на самом деле говорили о нас самих" ("We loved the stars, but we were really speaking of ourselves.")

This design leans into emotional depth, loss, and wonder. The warm, fiery tones contrasted with the vast coldness of space speak of longing and searching — for connection, for meaning, for home. It's a poster that whispers: “space is not just out there, it’s within.”

Right Poster: "We Found Ourselves"

A closer, more intense view of an astronaut gazing into the cosmos. The space is vibrant — filled with purples, teals, and blues, portraying both surreal beauty and psychological depth. The glowing eye visor reflects a celestial body, hinting at discovery or revelation.

The tagline reads:

"Мы искали звёзды, а нашли самих себя" ("We searched for stars, and found ourselves.")

This poster represents awakening, transformation, and the sublime beauty of space as a mirror to the human soul.
