Arrival Logline goes here
A linguist is recruited by the military to communicate with alien visitors after twelve mysterious spacecraft appear around the world.
2016
A contemporary Earth thrown into fear when twelve alien spacecraft appear at seemingly random locations across the globe.
Dr. Louise Banks, a linguist mourning a profound personal loss, recruited to make first contact.
Humanity has no way to communicate with the aliens, and nations grow suspicious of each other's intentions.
If communication fails, the result could be worldwide war among frightened, mistrustful nations.
Louise wants to understand the aliens' language and purpose before fear turns to violence.
Rising global paranoia and political brinkmanship, especially factions ready to act on incomplete translations.
Louise's growing understanding of the aliens' language forces her to choose between the safety of not-knowing and the burden of seeing her life, in full, before it happens.
