1902 Méliès

Georges Méliès was an illusionist who, fascinated by the possibilities of the Lumière brothers’ cinematograph, became a pioneer of cinema. In 1902, he filmed his most famous work: “Le Voyage dans la Lune” (“A Trip to the Moon”), one of the first science fiction film in history and one of the most complex of its time due to its duration, visual effects, and boundless imagination.
