E.T. wishes it could be this unhinged: Turkish cinema's most chaotic alien encounter.
Ali is a journalist who conducts unsubstantiated interviews. While taking photographs for a story about aliens, he comes across a flying saucer. Out of it comes Homoti from the planet Homon. Homoti does not want Ali to report on him because he does not want to be recognized in the world. However, when journalists soon learn of his existence, they compete for the news. Homoti will have to use her special powers.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of Turkey's 1980s Yeşilçam boom where studios cranked out genre films on shoestring budgets, often 'borrowing' liberally from Hollywood blockbusters.
Müjdat Gezen was already a beloved comedian and children's TV host; this film let him go absolutely feral with sci-fi premises.
