The young woman is named Sarah, and she grew up in a small town where she never felt like she fit in. After leaving for college and then working in the city, she returns home to visit her family and confront her past. However, her trip home takes a terrifying turn when she and her family are abducted by a group of otherworldly creatures.
The creatures take Sarah to their spaceship, where they reveal that they have been monitoring her for years. They believe that she possesses a rare ability that could help them save their dying planet. Sarah is reluctant to help the creatures at first, but as she learns more about their situation, she begins to realize that their survival is intertwined with her own.
As Sarah works with the extraterrestrials to find a solution, she has to confront not only the prejudices and fears of her own community, but also personal issues that have been holding her back for years. With the clock ticking and the fate of the world at stake, Sarah must find the strength to save herself and potentially save an entire civilization.
