What Planet Are You From?
“To save his planet, an alien must find a woman on Earth to have his baby. There's just one problem.”
A human-looking alien from a highly advanced but emotionless all-male society is sent to Earth to impregnate a woman and bring the child back to their planet. The alien ends up falling in love while a suspicious FAA agent tails him.
