The Brother from Another Planet (1984)


A science fiction directed by John Sayles.
An alien lands on Ellis Island and makes his way to Harlem. Unable to speak, but able to fix any machine just by touching it, he finds life there confusing. There are 2 "men in black" looking for him, but he's always one step ahead of them.
This film is unique in that the main character has no dialogue. The production quality is not that great, but the plot is really cool. The characters are good as well and the pacing is right. I'm rating it good.
