The Nearby Distance (1981)
An alien arrives on the planet Earth with a special mission. He must steal and send canned food to his home planet, because it is very scarce there. The alien is confronted with the absurdity of Earth life. Ten animated episodes were inserted into the feature film as an ironic commentary.
