First Spaceship on Venus
After discovering a communications device from Venus containing a message about the impending attack of Earth, an international crew of astronauts and scientists embark on the first manned expedition of the mystery-shrouded planet. Upon arrival, they discover the ruins of an advanced civilization that destroyed itself in its zealous quest to master atomic weaponry. Based on the best-selling novel 'The Astronauts' by Poland's most famous science-fiction writer, Stanislaw Lem ('Solaris'), 'First Spaceship on Venus' has been called "the first influential post-war space opera from Eastern Europe". A spectacular Technicolor adventure.
