节目叙述者:本节目讲述了谢尔盖·波诺马连科的故事,他声称自己从1958年穿越到了2006年。他的身份证明文件显示他出生于1932年,但外表却只有20多岁。他身上穿着看起来很新的旧式服装,并携带一台看起来很新的老式相机。他向警察询问一个已经不存在的地点,并最终被送往精神病院。在精神病院,他向医生讲述了自己看到不明飞行物后穿越时空的故事。医生为他冲洗了胶卷,照片显示了1950年代后期的基辅景象,以及谢尔盖本人和一位年轻女子。谢尔盖在诊所神秘消失,警方调查发现他确实在1978年失踪。1958年,谢尔盖在一个广播节目中对未来做出了准确的预测。几年后,照片中的女子瓦莲京娜收到了谢尔盖寄来的一张照片,照片背景是未来基辅的天际线,照片背面写着谢尔盖的信息。节目最后指出,谢尔盖的故事很可能是伪造的,因为纪录片中存在一些细节上的错误,例如日期和时间的不一致,以及警方提供的谢尔盖失踪照片与瓦莲京娜收到的照片很可能是同一张照片,只是经过了数字处理。 警官谢尔盖·奥诺潘科:我遇到谢尔盖时,他看起来很困惑和焦虑,他的身份证明文件显示他出生于1932年,但这与他的实际年龄不符。他的着装和相机都显得非常新,但却是老式风格。我最初以为他精神失常,将他送往精神病院。 帕维尔·克里季科夫医生:谢尔盖声称他最后一次记得的时间是1958年的星期三,而现在是2006年4月23日。他描述自己看到一个形状像钟的不明飞行物后穿越时空。我起初认为他患有精神疾病,但他的故事和照片让我感到困惑。谢尔盖的相机和诊所里的钟表在谢尔盖进入我的办公室后停止了工作,在他离开后又恢复了正常。我为他冲洗了胶卷,照片显示了1950年代后期的基辅景象,以及谢尔盖本人和一位年轻女子。谢尔盖在诊所神秘消失了。 谢尔盖·波诺马连科:我记得我看到一个形状像钟的不明飞行物,之后就来到了2006年。我试图找到回家的路,但一切都变了。 瓦莲京娜·库利斯:谢尔盖是我的老朋友,他于1978年失踪。几年后,我收到了他寄来的一张照片,照片背景是未来基辅的天际线,照片背面写着他的信息。
