A huge spaceship makes its way to our world and sends out a smaller ship with three aliens in it to have a look around. Something goes wrong and the three explorers eject to Earth in small pods as their vessel explodes. Only one being seems to survive and, as is usually the case, the local authorities just want to shoot at it and call the military. The alien goes into hiding thanks to the help of a blind music teacher who has psychic powers (Belli), and a sympathetic priest with good intentions (Balsam). It turns out that the visitor just wants to make nice, be friends with everybody, and would simply prefer to go home rather than hurt anyone. His friends are looking for him, but time is running out! An unexpected film that seems to be aiming for a distinctly youthful audience with several scenes of the extra-terrestrial performing cute little telekinetic tricks peppered throughout the running time. There are the expected heartstring tugging scenes as well and the special effects, though cool in their way, probably won’t impress many these days. Brother From Space tries hard and has its moments, but is definitely not for everyone. Italian science fiction die-hards, Agostina Belli enthusiasts, and possibly the insatiably curious might find things to enjoy, but the pace is similar to Distant Lights with a prevalent wholesome vibe/positive message thing happening throughout. Inspiration can be traced back to films such as ET and Wavelength (mostly ET), among others. Something different for the adventurous.
