Films We Like has acquired Canadian rights to WE ARE LIVING THINGS by Antonio Tibaldi which had its premiere at the 2022 Slamdance Film Festival. The science-fiction-like film revolves around two immigrants in search of the truth about a UFO abduction.
Solomon, an undocumented Mexican immigrant, lives and works in a New York City recycling center. Convinced that his missing mother has been abducted by aliens, he has built himself a radio telescope to intercept possible communications from outer space. He meets by chance the attractive Chuyao, an employee of a nail salon in an irregular situation, who also shares a personal interest in UFOs. After a violent altercation with her thuggish boyfriend, the two left behind escape to the West in search of the truth.
