Tito, der Professor und die Aliens

The cranky scientist (Valerio Mastandrea) and guardian of the patchwork family against will is himself a widower and has been following a trail in space for years in vain, which seems to be a message from his deceased wife. Fortunately, there is his colleague Stella (Clémence Poésy) and other wondrous characters who turn the desert into an adventure playground for the two orphans. "From the children's point of view, an adventurous universe full of absurdities unfolds, which, not far from the myth-enshrouded Area 51, handles surreal elements with relish." (filmdienst.de) Starring Valerio Mastandrea as the scientist, Clémence Poésy as Stella, Miguel Herrera as Luke, John Keogh as Colonel Daniels, Gianfelice Imparato as Fidel, and Natalie Spencer as Emily Nosh.
