Russian science fiction films combine national characteristics, cultural values, science fiction imagination, exotic aesthetics and other elements into one, with unique charm.
The Modern Express reporter noted that among the films screened was the most popular "national science fiction film" of the Soviet period, "Amphibians", which tells the story of the famous doctor Salevattor transplanting the gills of a baby shark into an Indian boy, making him an amphibian who can live on land and live underwater.
The Russian science fiction film "Under the Electronic Clouds", which has been acclaimed at international film festivals in recent years, is a 138-minute science fiction film co-produced by Russia, Ukraine and Poland, telling the story of people losing their way around an unbuilt skyscraper in the future of Russia.
Filmed in 1962, Tempest Star is known as the Soviet version of Forbidden Planet, which tells the story of astronauts landing on Venus and being in danger of finding greedy monsters. The film combines thriller and combat elements, and the blessing of battle songs makes the film a perfect portrayal of atmosphere, set, music and space technology, which has a profound impact on future generations of space science fiction entertainment.
The film "The Visitor to the Museum", which won the Special Jury Prize of the 16th Moscow International Science Fiction Film Festival - the Silver George Award and the Jury Award, was praised for having Tarkovsky's shadow. The film depicts a wasteland-like human world, with most of the population consisting of deranged and deformed mutants who have been left on the reservation. The whole film presents the chaos and filth and sadness and depression of the end times with poetic pictures.
In addition, the festival will also show the science fiction documentary "The Road to the Stars" and the science fiction film "Letter from the Dead", which presents the unique aesthetic principles of the "Leningrad School".
