Aelita
The world's first feature film to use interplanetary travel as its main plot line, Aelita is based on A. N. Tolstoi's still-popular novel. A brilliant engineer and a crusty soldier travel to the Red Planet to find it inhabited by meek humanoids and ruled with an iron fist by the beautiful Aelita. Spectacular unrest ensues; will our heroes make it back home?
