Language: German
Science fiction hergestellt in 1952 on behalf of the Austrian government, with a top ensemble from Hans Moser to Josef Meinrad: In the year 2000, occupying troops are still stationed in the country and no state treaty is yet in sight. On April 1, the prime minister declares Austria independent, which quite outrages the world public. Unique in Austria's film history! UFOs over Schönbrunn: madness!
"An April Fool's joke, a joke projected into the future..." MICHAEL FRIEND
