The
Congress Synopsis:
“A
loose adaptation of Stanislaw Lem’s “The Futurological Congress,” a 1971 black
humour science fiction detailing the exploits of the hero of a number of his
books, Ijon Tichy, as he visits the Eighth World Futurological Congress at the
Costa Rica Hilton. The book is Lem’s take on the common sci-fi trope of an
apparently Utopian future that turns out to be an illusion.”
