Synopsis

In 1983, the New York-London line was served by space flights. During one of its flights, however, an accident occurs: the Spindriff crosses a strange cloud and arises in disaster on a strange planet. Three crew members and four of their passengers will then discover that they landed on a planet populated by men and animals that make their size ten times.

They will have to survive among these hostile giants and try to repair their ship while avoiding being captured.

In the land of giants (Land of the Giants) was an American science fiction TV series broadcast between 1968 and 1970.
