[edit] Plot
An American scientist contacts Mars by radio and receives information that Mars is a utopia and that Earth's people can be saved if they return to the worship of God. Revolution sweeps the Earth, including the Soviet Union. But there remains doubt about the messages being genuine, as an ex-Nazi claims he was duping the Americans. Written by Bill Smith.
[edit] A review of the film
One review described the film as follows: "Attempts to communicate with Mars sets of a chain of events which threatens the safety of the entire world. [This film is a] fanciful science fiction melodrama with a bit more meat to the plot than most." [1]
