That Alien, Sound
Overview:
In writer/director Brando Topp’s endearing feature debut, an alien sound wave takes over a woman's body through a radio broadcast, leaving her disbelieving boyfriend struggling to comprehend her new identity and save their relationship. Modern gender roles, acceptance of diversity, community support and rolling with the punches of a modern relationship are just some of the themes the young indie auteur addresses in this one-of-a-kind slice of eccentric scifi/rom/com existentialism, featuring a fearlessly funny and heartfelt performance by the great Mia Danelle as ‘Sound’.
