The Brother from Another Planet
A mute, three-toed extraterrestrial who crash-lands near Ellis Island while escaping slavery on his home planet. Because he looks like a Black human male, he is able to blend in when he finds refuge on the streets of Harlem. He uses his psychic and technological healing abilities—fixing complex machinery simply by touching it—to earn a living and bond with the local community. However, his peaceful assimilation is threatened when two white alien bounty hunters land on Earth to capture him and bring him back.
