The production of "The Road to the Stars" lasted three years; it is an ambitious ideological film featuring groundbreaking special effects and exquisite handcrafted models. The film had a significant influence on Kubrick's portrayal of weightlessness, scorching planets, and rotating space station models in "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1969). Klushantsev's "The Road to the Stars" captured the zeitgeist of the space race. Following the directives of Moscow's film bureaucrats, he included a model of the Soviet Union's first orbital satellite in the film. As a result, this fifty-minute movie stirred panic among audiences in the Soviet Union. Reports indicated that some viewers fainted when the film segments were broadcast on American television. This led to his subsequent film, which was also his only standard feature—a somewhat disappointing 1962 film titled "The Stormy Planet." This film is one of the more prominent Soviet sci-fi movies from this era, telling the story of a team of Soviet astronauts exploring Venus, consisting of four men, one girl, and a cumbersome robot (which is clearly modeled after the robot character in MGM's "Forbidden Planet" (1956)). When the two spacecraft are destroyed by a meteor, the team is forced to land on the planet's surface. Upon landing, they encounter malicious lizard men, predatory pterosaurs, and carnivorous plants, but ultimately, they manage to escape back into space.
