Real
Scene was shot on a ship in the desert - this is an abandoned Soviet research vessel "Hydrator" in the drying Aral Sea. Access to the ship is free, but at the moment it has lost all the beauty, as well as most of not only the small parts, but also the masts and everything that could be unscrewed.
