Iron Sky is a 2012 Finnish/German/Australian science fiction comedy directed by Timo Vuorensola starring Julia Dietze, Christopher Kirby, Götz Otto, Udo Kier, and Peta Sergeant. The film is the first "real" film by Vuorensola, who had previously made Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning with a few friends.
