Two loners from different worlds find fleeting intimacy in this enchanting and stylish short film. A solitary teenage girl discovers an injured man on her neighbour's property, but this hirsute being seems to have fallen from another time or even another planet. Earthlings is a surreal, whimsical and surprisingly sweet portrait of two outsiders longing for connection.
