Elio (English) Movie

ELIO is the story of a young man who accidentally becomes the Ambassador of Earth. Elio Solis (Yonas Kibreab) is an orphan. He stays with his maternal aunt, Olga (Zoe Saldaña), who works on a military base observing space debris. Elio has withdrawn into a shell due to the death... of his parents. But a visit to a space museum and learning about the possibility of extra-terrestrial beings gets him excited. The story moves a few years ahead. Elio is now doing better and his life's mission is to be captured by aliens! He uses a ham radio to try to communicate but to no avail. At his aunt's workplace, he overhears from a conspiracy theorist named Gunther Melmac (Brendan Hunt) that aliens might exist. He uses Melmac's device to send a message to the aliens, leading to a power outage in the facility. Olga almost loses her job and fed up with Elio's behaviour, she sends him to a camp. At the camp, Elio is confronted by bullies. Suddenly, an alien ship appears and takes him away, much to his delight. Elio soon arrives at the Communiverse, a place where aliens of all kinds bring knowledge from their own worlds to share with others. Elio realizes that they received the message that he sent from Melmac's device. They assume that he's the Ambassador of the Earth, not realizing that he's just a kid. Meanwhile, Elio decides to solve a conflict between Communiverse and the dangerous ruler of Hylurg, Grigon (Brad Garrett). What happens next forms the rest of the film.
