Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A group of nude men walking down a winding mountain road and claiming to be from other planets in the solar system are confronted by a gang of human bullies in underground Chinese filmmaker Cui Zi'en's radical entry into the 2005 Vancouver Film Festival. When the ruffians demand to be given partial ownership of each alien visitor's respective planet, the strange visitors utilize cell phones to call their rulers -- all of whom are named Jesus -- to confer with them on the troublesome issue. Meanwhile, conflicted bully Xiao Bo (Yu Bo) begins stripping off his clothing in a show of solidarity with the peaceful, self-proclaimed extraterrestrials.
