Opens on May 10

Director: John Sayles Run Time: 108 min. Release Year: 1984

 This whimsical but nuanced sci-fi fantasy takes a fresh look at our society through the eyes of an escaped enslaved extraterrestrial from outer space (Joe Morton) who crash-lands in Harlem and is taken in by the regulars of a local bar. With an incredible intuitive ability (and some useful low-budget extraterrestrial skills), the alien gradually begins to assimilate to this strange new world, while changing everyone he meets on this “original and eye-opening” (The Hollywood Reporter) journey through the streets of 80’s America.
