The film opens with an American manned landing mission
returning, in 2018, to the Moon. The lander carries two astronauts; one
of them a black male model, James Washington, specifically chosen to
aid the current President of the United States in her re-election. Upon landing on the dark side of the Moon, the two encounter the Nazis who have been there since 1945, and Washington is taken captive.
The Nazi scientist Doktor Richter is called in to investigate
Washington and finds his smartphone. Although initially skeptical, he
recognizes that the computing power of this device far outmatches
anything they have come up with themselves and integrates the device
into the Götterdämmerung,
the Nazi space battleship. Unfortunately for Richter, the phone stops
working due to an empty battery just as he is demonstrating its power to
his superiors, especially the new Führer.
Wolfgang Kortzfleisch. Nazi commander Klaus Adler, who is (for genetic
reasons) destined to marry Earth specialist Renate Richter, Doktor
Richter's daughter, offers to go to Earth to find more phones.
Iron Sky comes from the makers of Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning and was produced by Tero Kaukomaa of Blind Spot Pictures and Energia Productions, co-produced by New Holland Pictures and 27 Films, and co-financed by numerous individual supporters; Samuli Torssonen
was responsible for the computer generated effects. It was released to
