Moonwolf (German: Zurück aus dem Weltall; Finnish: Avaruusraketilla rakkauteen) is a 1959 West German-Finnish science fiction film directed by Georges Friedland and Martin Nosseck.
[1] The Federal Republic of Germany decides to send a wolf dog named Wolff into space aboard a rocket, but there are problems with Wolff's feeding, so it is decided to bring the dog back to the earth's surface, resulting in the rocket carrying Wolff landing in Finnish Lapland.
Dr. Holm (Carl Möhner) and Professor Robert (Richard Häussler) go to Finland to find out where the rocket landed.
During the trip, Holm tells Robert about his previous research trip to Finland, when he met Ara (Anneli Sauli), the daughter of the owner of the weather station, and from where he initially brought Wolff with him to Germany.
[1] In the United States, the English-dubbed version of the film was distributed by Allied Artists Pictures and released in 1966.
