Le avventure straordinarissime di Saturnino Farandola (English: The Extraordinary Adventures of Saturnino Farandola) is an Italian silent film of 1913 directed and interpreted by Marcel Fabre. It is divided into four episodes, inspired by the fantastic adventurous novel of Saturnino Farandola's extraordinary travels by Albert Robida (1879).

It is sometimes cited by critics as one of the first expressions of European science fiction films.
