Synopsis

From a secret base in Antarctica, the first Nazi spaceships were launched in late '45 to fund the military base Schwarze Sonne (Black Sun) on the dark side of the Moon. This base was to build a powerful invasion fleet and return to take over the Earth once the time was right. Now it is 2018 and the Nazi invasion is on its way to earth.
