Enemy Mine” (1985)

“Enemy Mine” (1985) is a science fiction fantasy film directed by Wolfgang Petersen and based on the short novel of the same name by Barry B. Longyear. The film stars Dennis Quaid, Louis Gossett Jr. and Brian James.
Set in the distant future, the story takes place during an interstellar war between humans and an alien named Drac. The plot follows the experiences of two soldiers from opposing sides who must face their prejudices and forge an unlikely alliance.

The film begins with human pilot Captain Willis Davidge (Dennis Quaid) and a Drac warrior named Jeriba Shigan (Louis Gossett Jr.) fighting in space. After both spacecraft are damaged in a battle, they crash-land on an enemy planet nani. Trapped and with no hope of immediate rescue, the two enemies initially clash. However, as they struggle to survive in harsh conditions, they must work together to overcome the challenges they face.

Over time, Davidge and Jeriba form a deep bond that transcends racial and cultural differences. Their relationship is further tested when Jeriba, a member of a warrior race with a unique reproductive cycle, gives birth to a young child.
