There are creepy films with hideous aliens and films that satirize the latter. There are also satires of hard-boiled detectives and basically every other genre. Young director Takeba satirizes them all, but in a romantic, endearing way. She really loves that ugly alien.

Lisa Takeba is a filmmaker and writer. She wrote the screenplay for a Nintendo DS video game and writes novels that are suitable for mobile phones. Her new film The Pinkie was screened during IFFR 2014. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2jbC-Tvor8
