CODEPENDENT LESBIAN SPACE ALIEN SEEKS SAME tracks the adventures, misadventures and experiences of three aliens from the planet Zots, sent down to Earth on a mission to rid themselves of romantic emotions, which are considered toxic to their planet's atmosphere. There they meet Jane, an Earthling of mild manners who lives an uneventful life and works in a stationery store; cross species romance ensues.

CODEPENDENT LESBIAN SPACES ALIEN SEEMS SAME is an original mash-up of a lo-fi New York City romantic comedy and a sci-fi B-movie spoof, exuding elements of CONEHEADS, EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY and a touch of MARS ATTACKS, full of extra-terrestrial laughs, loves and a dazzling soundtrack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvwETq9y_Kg

"Straight" from Sundance, CLSASS might just be the most hilarious film of 2011." Brandon Judell - Culture Catch

"The played-out scenarios in Olnek's first feature, such as Jane's sessions with her therapist, are soon outnumbered by inspired silliness, like tears shed over a revolving dessert tray in a diner." Melissa Anderson - Village Voice
