  A film szinopszisa:
  
  
  
  What planet are you from?
  A feature film
  
  
  
  
  
  Andras is not exactly the pride of the family; well, he never wanted to be, anyway. He is of a rare breed, the kind that defies judgment, that may be viewed in a positive or negative light. To claim that he's different would be an understatement; he's the very fabric of difference. Alone, lonely, isolated, yet somehow not unhappy. He has no friends, never had a girlfriend and next to no one knows him in college by name. He feels at peace at home – a mountaintop house on the outskirts of Budapest (the 'thin fabric'). He feels nervous, sometimes terrified when in college or exposed to the tumult of downtown (the 'thick fabric'). He writes short stories, novellas – growing in skill writing them – usually based on his own childhood and current life. He reads books, many of them – growing in skill telling good literature from bad. What he is not growing in is social skills and experience.
  
  Enter Nika and Daniela, two visiting students from faraway countries who make money by cleaning houses; Andras' mother hires them. Daniela is a strikingly mainstream girl and yet our hero must see something in her because he sees her and falls for her on the spot; everything changes in his delicate little world. It may be more than romantic love – obsession, perhaps? They never speak, yet like Tatyana to Onegin1, he takes all his courage to write her an elaborate love letter; and like Tatyana, he is rejected in the face (“what planet are you from?”). Now everything is in ruins apparently beyond repair. A new kind of change kicks in.
  
  Based on this all-important rejection, Andras is turning into something entirely alien to his old self. His spirits descend below the 'apocalypse line', extreme nihilism and rebellion become his main drives. He plunges headlong into the world of half-light parties and sex trips, or at least he attempts to; his lack of skills leaves him stranded most of the time. No more short stories, no more being alone and content. The spiralling downward seems unstoppable.
  
  A negative miracle demands a positive miracle for remedy; and it happens. Based on his random, sporadic encounters with Christians, a conviction slowly and painfully builds up in him, culminating in his solitary conversion. Shades turn brighter and his spirit rises from the abyss. He is still alone but no more lonely. And he meets a Christian girl.
