On 13 June 1961 a young boy is about to fly in a rocketship called Planetora into the cosmos. The film tricks (double-exposition) took up a considerable part of the footage. The “double-exposition allowed the automat to inform about the speed on the rocketship console”. Planetora is a remarkable family genre film whose collage-like visual has been created by using standard film tricks implemented in the camera.
