John Cameron Mitchell, director of the acclaimed films Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Shortbus wants to teach you How to Talk to Girls at Parties. His new film takes us to an exotic and unusual world: suburban London in the late 1970s. Under the spell of the Sex Pistols, every teenager in the country wants to be a punk, including our hopeless hero Enn (Alex Sharp). Crashing local punk queen Boadicea's party, Enn discovers every boy's dream – gorgeous foreign exchange students. When he meets the enigmatic Zan (Elle Fanning), it's love at first sight.
But these teens are, in fact, aliens from outer space, sent to Earth to prepare for a mysterious rite of passage. When their dark secret is revealed, the love-struck Enn must turn to Boadicea (Nicole Kidman) and her followers for help in order to save the girl he loves from certain death. When the punks take on the aliens, neither Enn's nor Zan's universe will ever be the same again.
Based on the short story of the same name by beloved graphic novelist Neil Gaiman, the film also features Ruth Wilson and Matt Lucas in supporting roles. It premiered at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival back in May and comes to US cinemas later this year. Check out the trailer below!
