🎬 Golden Age of Science Fiction Film Course Four Mondays in March | 6:30 PM 📍 Zoetropolis Cinema Stillhouse The 1950s are often called the Golden Age of Science Fiction—a moment when flying saucers, alien visitors, and technological anxieties flooded American screens. But beneath the ray guns and rubber suits, these films were wrestling with serious questions about humanity, fear, conformity, science, and the future.

This four-week film course explores classic Cold War–era science fiction cinema as both entertainment and cultural diagnosis. Each evening includes a brief introduction, a full screening, and a guided post-film discussion. Films will be screened over four Mondays beginning March 9 at 6:30 PM Together, these films ask enduring questions: What does it mean to be human in an age of powerful technology? How do fear and paranoia reshape communities? Are the real monsters “out there”—or closer to home? No prior background is required—just curiosity and a love of classic cinema. Food and drinks are available from Zoetropolis throughout the evening. 🎟️ Advance registration encouraged. Join us for four nights of film, philosophy, and mid-century sci-fi imagination.
