Question: What year was the Afrocentric theme film "the Brother from Another Planet" released?

Context paragraphs:
Venera 4: Venera 4 (Russian: "Венера-4" meaning "Venus 4"), also designated 1V (V-67) s/n 310 was a probe in the Soviet Venera program for the exploration of Venus.  It was the first successful probe to perform in-place analysis of the environment of another planet.  It may also have been the first probe to land on another planet, with the fate of its predecessor Venera 3 being unclear.  Venera 4 provided the first chemical analysis of the Venusian atmosphere, showing it to be primarily carbon dioxide with a few percent of nitrogen and below one percent of oxygen and water vapors.  The station detected a weak magnetic field and no radiation field.  The outer atmospheric layer contained very little hydrogen and no atomic oxygen.  The probe sent the first direct measurements proving that Venus was extremely hot, that its atmosphere was far denser than expected, and that it had lost most of its water long ago.

HD 102272 c: HD 102272 c is an extrasolar planet approximately 1,200 light-years away in the constellation of Leo.  The planet is orbiting the K-type giant star HD 102272.  The planet was discovered by the radial velocity method, using the Hobby-Eberly Telescope.  Another planet, HD 102272 b, was also discovered orbiting the same star.  Although there is evidence for the existence of this planet, data is insufficient to unambiguously determine its orbit.  The discovery was announced in June 2008.  It's thought to have at least 2.6 times the mass of Jupiter.

Time Walker: Time Walker (also known as Being from Another Planet) is a 1982 science fiction-horror B-movie directed by Tom Kennedy.  Under the title "Being from Another Planet", it was featured in "Mystery Science Theater 3000" episode 405, which first aired on July 4, 1992.

Prime Factors (Star Trek: Voyager): "Voyager" encounters a very hospitable race known as the Sikarians and is invited to visit their homeworld, Sikaris.  Shore leave is organized, and during the visit, Ensign Kim and a Sikarian transport themselves to another planet, Alastria.  Kim notices that the planet has two stars and must belong to another star system.  The Sikarian describes the location of the planet, and Kim deduces that the teleporter device—the trajector—has transported them 40,000 light-years across the Delta Quadrant.

HD 102272 b: HD 102272 b is an extrasolar planet approximately 1,200 light-years away in the constellation of Leo.  The planet was discovered orbiting the K-type giant star HD 102272 in 2008.  The planet was discovered by the radial velocity method, using the Hobby-Eberly Telescope.  Another planet, HD 102272 c, was also discovered orbiting the same star.  The discovery was announced in June 2008.  HD 102272 b orbits at an average of 0.614 astronomical units away from its star, with a mass at least 5.9 ± 0.2 times that of Jupiter.

Planets beyond Neptune: Following the discovery of the planet Neptune in 1846, there was considerable speculation that another planet might exist beyond its orbit.  The search began in the mid-19th century and culminated at the start of the 20th with Percival Lowell's quest for Planet X. Lowell proposed the Planet X hypothesis to explain apparent discrepancies in the orbits of the giant planets, particularly Uranus and Neptune, speculating that the gravity of a large unseen ninth planet could have perturbed Uranus enough to account for the irregularities.

Afrofuturism: Afrofuturism is a cultural aesthetic, philosophy of science, and philosophy of history that combines elements of science fiction, historical fiction, fantasy, Afrocentrism, and magic realism with non-Western cosmologies in order to critique not only the present-day dilemmas of black people, but also to revise, interrogate, and re-examine the historical events of the past.  First coined by Mark Dery in 1993, and explored in the late 1990s through conversations led by scholar Alondra Nelson, Afrofuturism addresses themes and concerns of the African diaspora through a technoculture and science fiction lens, encompassing a range of media and artists with a shared interest in envisioning black futures that stem from Afrodiasporic experiences.  Seminal Afrofuturistic works include the novels of Samuel R. Delany and Octavia Butler; the canvases of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Angelbert Metoyer, and the photography of Renée Cox; the explicitly extraterrestrial mythoi of Parliament-Funkadelic, the Jonzun Crew, Warp 9, Deltron 3030, and Sun Ra; and the Marvel Comics character Black Panther.

The Brother from Another Planet: The Brother from Another Planet is a 1984 science fiction film written, directed and edited by John Sayles.  It stars Joe Morton as "The Brother", an alien and escaped slave who, while fleeing "Another Planet", has crash-landed and hides in Harlem.  It has been also described as a film in the Afrofuturism genre.

Brother from Another Series: "Brother from Another Series" is the sixteenth episode of "The Simpsons"<nowiki>'</nowiki> eighth season.  It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on February 23, 1997.  Sideshow Bob is released from prison into the care of his brother Cecil and claims to be a changed man.  However, Bart does not believe him and tries to find out what Bob is up to.  It was the first episode directed by Pete Michels and was written by Ken Keeler.  The episode guest stars Kelsey Grammer in his sixth appearance as Sideshow Bob and David Hyde Pierce as Cecil.  The title is not only a pun on the movie "The Brother from Another Planet" (used for a previous episode as well), but also a reference to the fact that guest stars Kelsey Grammer (Frasier Crane) and David Hyde Pierce (Niles Crane) also played bickering brothers on the NBC sitcom "Frasier".

HD 217107 b: HD 217107 b is an extrasolar planet approximately 64 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Pisces (the Fish).  The planet was discovered orbiting the star HD 217107 approximately every seven days, classifying the planet as a hot Jupiter.  Because of the planet's somewhat eccentric orbit, scientists were able to confirm another planet within the system (HD 217107 c).
