Episode description

In this first episode of our Journey Through Space, we introduce the new series by discussing what makes a great 'space' film. We outline the iconic movies we'll be covering throughout this journey, setting the stage for an exciting exploration of the genre.

Our adventure begins with A Trip to the Moon (Le Voyage dans la Lune) from 1902, directed by Georges Méliès, a groundbreaking film that laid the foundation for sci-fi cinema. We dive into its impact on both the art of filmmaking and the development of science fiction as a genre.

Join us as we launch this cosmic exploration with the film that started it all.
