Overview
English-dubbed and re-edited version of the 1959 Soviet film Nebo Zovyot. Acquired by Roger Corman and reworked by a young Francis Ford Coppola, the film relocates its Cold War “space race” to a fictional future where rival nations—North Hemis and South Hemis—compete to reach Mars first. When one crew’s mission goes awry, their rivals risk their own flight to attempt a daring rescue nearthe Martian moons, where strange cosmic dangers await.
