Not Working?
Viaje a la Luna (A Trip to the Moon) was the screen's first science fiction film.
It draws from the Jules Verne story and the works of H. G. Wells.
The film was 14 minutes long, but this was considered to be a full length feature as movies at this time were shown between live vaudeville acts.
It has great special effects for the time and some of the ladies of the Follies Bergere as "lab assistants".

Re: A Trip To The Moon
Original name for the film is "Le Voyage dans the Lune". I was thinking that perhaps we might list it by that title, but since we have a mostly English speaking audience, perhaps not.
