'''Strange Frame: Love and Sax''' is a 2012 cutout-animated film by GB Hajim and Shelley Doty. It was originally intended to be the first film in a tetralogy, though it is as yet unclear if the other films are still forthcoming. The film is set in the 28th century, where humans have abandoned Earth in favor of the Jovian moons, genetic and cybernetic enhancements are rampant to the point that the definition of what constitutes a human has been greatly stretched, and corporations have successfully brought back indentured servitude.

The film is set in the 28th century, where humans have abandoned Earth in favor of the Jovian moons, genetic and cybernetic enhancements are rampant to the point that the definition of what constitutes a human has been greatly stretched, and corporations have successfully brought back indentured servitude.

''Love and Sax'' tells the story of Parker C. Boyd and Naia X, a pair of lesbian musicians who meet, fall in love, and form a band. When Naia is kidnapped by a predatory talent agent who wants to steal her personality and put it into a robot, Parker enlists the help of a pair of smugglers to rescue her.

!This film contains examples of:
* AIIsACrapshoot: After Grenman installs Bitsea into the ''Lone Mango'', she... doesn't take it well. To be fair to her, she is sentient and used to have her own body, so being forced to run systems for a rusty piece of crap like the ''Mango'' is a bit of a comedown.
* AnArmAndALeg: Grenman lost both of his lower legs to some aliens with a foot fetish.
* FantasticDrugs: In the 28th century, mankind has created a whole bunch of new ways to get high. At one point, Parker and Naia sample some of the more exotic ones.
* HumansAreWhite: Very deliberately averted. GB Hajim and Shelley Doty made a point of having all of the main characters be people of color.
