Based On The Independent Film Of The Same Name. One Night, A Peculiar Star Became Visible To The Inhabitants Of Earth.

Then, Out Of The Blue, The Giant Thing In The Sky Attempted To Communicate With Humanity By Broadcasting Messages In The Form Of Kitsch Advertising Slogans.

The Dwindling Enclaves Of Humans Were Left To Patch The Holes In Their Culture And History With The Crumbs Left Behind By The Departed Age Of Things. Then The Giant Thing In The Sky Began To Wake Up...
