About The War Of The Worlds: The Prophetic Novel
First published in 1898, H.G. Wells’s The War of the Worlds was a veritable literary and cultural revolution. It laid the foundations for modern sci-fi by telling the first- ever story of an alien invasion. A political and moral fable, the novel uses science fiction as a tool to raise our awareness and alert the modern world to the dangers and risks inherent in industrial, scientific and technological progress. It is high time to rediscover this seminal book.
Directed by Cyril Leuthy, The War Of The Worlds: The Prophetic Novel leans on a strong ensemble — Loïc Corbery, Claude Aufaure, Olivier Martinaud — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2025.
