The Rocket Post

Set in the stunning landscape of the Outer Hebrides. It tells the remarkable true story of an idealistic German scientist, Gerhard Zucher, who came to the islands in the 1930's to develop a rocket to transport mail between the inaccessible islands.

When Zucher arrived in this remotest corner of Scotland, he had to deal with local hostility not only to new technology, but also to Germans as during the First World War the Highlands and Islands had lost, per capita, the greatest number of soldiers in the British Isles.
