weird sci-fi
12 December 2023
In the near future, aliens called Vuvv have made first contact some five years earlier. After some resistance, the aliens found capitalist allies to take over the economy. Together, they live on floating cities while the population on the ground struggles with joblessness. Artistic student Adam Campbell (Asante Blackk) falls for new student Chloe Marsh (Kylie Rogers). Adam convinces his mother Beth Campbell (Tiffany Haddish) to take in Chloe's homeless family. In order to make some money, Adam and Chloe decide to do a courtship broadcast.

This is one weird sci-fi concept. Like other great sci-fi, this says more about the present day situation. This is really about today's growing underclass and their hopelessness. Blackk is an intriguing actor. The alien design is unique and weird. There are issues for a general public audience. A lot of this film is awkward and uncomfortable. It could be funny as long as the viewer isn't disturbed by the material.
