Synopsis

A shambolic reclusive advice columnist known professionally as Dear Alien is in crisis. He has a deadline of yesterday for a collection of his columns; if he doesn’t turn it in, he’ll be broke and in danger of eviction. But the agonizing predictability of readers’ questions is driving him mad, his editor is showing alarming signs of romantic interest, and online trolls are making threats, in this existential comedy about how to live in our postmodern world.
