A Trip to the Moon
The first science fiction film!
Directed by Georges Méliès
Produced by Star Film
A whimsical, visually inventive silent fantasy that treats space exploration as theatrical spectacle and satire, pioneering science fiction cinema with playful wonder rather than realism.
Professor Barbenfouillis and five of his colleagues from the Academy of Astronomy travel to the Moon aboard a rocket propelled by a giant cannon. Once on the lunar surface, the bold explorers face the many perils hidden in the caves of the mysterious planet.
