Based on Verne's book The Mysterious Island, five POWs escape from a camp in a balloon during the Civil War and crash-land on an uninhabited island in the Pacific. Trying to settle with their lives they find someone is helping them.
Directed by Eduard Pentslin, this Soviet adaptation of Jules Verne’s classic is a fascinating piece of cinematic history. While it lacks the high-octane CGI of modern versions, it compensates with atmospheric practical effects and a surprisingly gritty tone for its time. A patriotic, survivalist adventure that leans heavily into the ingenuity of its "colonists." It’s a bit stiff by today’s standards, but it remains a charmingly earnest and visually ambitious relic of early sci-fi cinema. A solid Soviet adaptation. Faithful to the book, atmospheric with great location shooting, but a bit slow and old-fashioned by modern standards
