Der schweigende Stern (1960)


When an alien artifact discovered on Earth is found to have come from Venus, an international team of astronauts embarks to investigate its origins.

East German - Polish sci-fi yarn is slow-paced, woodenly acted and has a slightly dubious political stance, but is otherwise well-crafted and offers some imaginative, even surreal settings.

 Maltin**: "Well produced but stilted."
