Who doesn't love good old-fashioned, head-melting, disturbingly prescient vintage sci-fi?
Kicking off tomorrow and running right through to Sunday, the IFI in Temple Bar is showing a series of modern classics of sci-fi that includes Primer, The Right Stuff (in 70mm, no less), The Andromeda Strain and a screening of Emer Reynolds' critically-acclaimed documentary The Farthest, which won at this year's Audi Dublin International Film Festival for Best Irish Documentary.
The Dark Skies Festival is run in conjunction with Trinity College's Science Gallery and you can get all the information on tickets from ifi.ie and here's the schedule of films that are being shown.
