The Alien (DVD)

He lives in a makeshift house made from garbage, draws strange crop circles every week and spends days trying to catch radio waves in the hope that he will be able to contact representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations. The villagers laugh at Lyosha and his strange hobbies, but everything changes when the one he has been calling for so long finally comes to him. Set in a remote Ural village, it follows an ordinary community and a hearing-impaired local resident. When an alien arrives, the film explores the theme of alienation--drawing parallels between an extraterrestrial's isolation and the experience of sensitive outcasts in small rural towns.
