Curse of the Man Who Sees UFOs
Christo Roppolo asserts years of videotaping and communicating with UFOs around Monterey, California. In 2013 he reaches out to filmmaker Justin Gaar to kick off a documentary about his sightings. Although the footage sparks skepticism, Justin is drawn by Christo's eccentric demeanor and extraordinary tales, and begins joining him on UFO-hunting expeditions along California's scenic central coast. When a crop circle emerges in Monterey County and makes global headlines, Christo's claims are vindicated.
