These six sci-fi and fantasy films will take you on a journey to other worlds. Explore the potential of technology. Watch dystopian imaginings of life on earth. Visit Vietnam with an interloper from another planet.  And go on an adventure with a 120-year-old trying to find a labyrinth in a mystical library. 

Aleph, a prototype of Jorge Luis Borges, is 120 years old and was born in a Library, which he has never left. He is looking for the perpetuation of the Library, which according to the legend can only happen after the Labyrinth is unlocked by a blind person. A call from Pontius Illiteratus invites Aleph to appear at the Babylon Congress for "adjusting his values." Thus, Aleph encounters a tame society, eaten by the destructive virus of the spectacle, floating in a superficial void.
