'Dream a Little Dream of Me' by The Mamas & The Papas

"Aelita" (1924) is based upon a novel by A. Tolstoy. Produced in the U.S.S.R. (founded in 1922), the movie is set at the beginning of the NEP (New Economic Policy) in December 1921. The version I watched has English titles by Kyril Dambueff and Mark Bennett. Annoying piano music by Alex Rannie. On December 4, 1921, at 6:27 p.m. Central European Time, radio stations on Earth received a strange signal. It is intriguing to see all the instrumentality of the deciphering office. The speculation on Mars is Sort of the first X-Files. Loss (a scientist who is obsessed with going to Mars) imagines Mars with Aelita (Yuliya Solntseva), a vamptress with a fascination with fascinators (a form of headgear). "Touch my lips with your lips as those people on Earth did." Meanwhile, back on Earth, his wife, Natasha (Valentina Kuindzhi) seems to have a thing going with their new male squatter. We have a natural blend of politics and space (or Loss's imagined Mars). I will not go into detail. However, you will need to watch this film to be culturally savvy.
