@@resiknoiro7506 It is based on short story (never translated to english) written by polish sci-fi and fantasy author Jacek Dukaj. The story takes place in the distant future. The main character is a catholic priest from Earth who arrives on the asteroid to investigate the site of miraculous healings. In the past, a lander crashed on an asteroid, one of the cosmonauts gave his life so that the rest would survive. On the basis of his dedication, the cult of Izmir (the asteroid is called Izmirad) was created.. A cathedral was built at the site of his death. The main material for its construction was crystal, which reproduced itself like a plant or fungus. Hence the appearance of this cathedral reminiscent of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona (Dukaj's main inspiration). As a result of the crystal poisoning, the priest cannot escape from the asteroid, which is getting further and further away and it is impossible to return to earth. At the very end, the priest transforms into part of the cathedral. Before he dies, he sees her inhabitants - ghosts or an alien life form. He joins them and moves away into the darkness of space.
