CAST
Heather Graham [Elizabeth]
Courtney Cox [Alice]
Kenneth Branagh [Steven Chesterman]

Physics lecturer Steven Chesterman finally realises his long cherished dream of perfecting a teleportation device and rushes home to tell his wife, Alice. But she has news of her own - she's a male alien disguised as a human female. Then Elizabeth arrives, another alien who is to escort Alice back to the planet Nulark...

NOTE: This was originally supposed to be one third of an anthology film to be called either Light Years or The Light Years Trilogy. This section was completed when the producers decided that another part of the film, an adaptation of Philip K. Dick's short story Imposter, was strong enough to be expanded into a feature and released separately. Alien Love Triangle was finally released as a short film three years later as part of the Imposter DVD package.
