The award-winning short film Higher Grounds has the earth welcoming our first alien contact. The aliens have announced their presence by flooding the earth's atmosphere with oxygen. Authorities here on earth take that as a gift, since we are choking ourselves with carbon dioxide. But is that really the aliens' intention? The ambassadors from the cosmos are two lower ranking aliens, Ralff and Rozzorokk, who both suffer from a lack of self-esteem. They can't even properly parallel park. One falls for an earthling, and the other is in a desperate search for a bathroom. Meanwhile, earthlings have their own problems. Chloe wants to go to the beach, despite the momentous happenings right there in the neighborhood, yet events conspire against her. It's a comedy, so don't get hung up on plausibility.
Higher Grounds is from Joe Kramer (previously at Neatorama), who plays the alien Ralff, and Christian Sarkis Graham, who plays the convenience store clerk. -Thanks, Joe Kramer!
