Synopsis: Alone millions of miles from earth, James Fletcher discovers a mysterious floating cloud of gas in the corner of his shuttle that, despite all his preconceived notions, is undeniably alive. On Earth, Evelyn, a senior biology student, picks up a strange radio transmission in the midst of thesis project and a quarter life crisis. Desperate to understand ideas beyond their grasp, Evelyn and James begin to spiral as they grapple with questions that challenge their ideas of life, the universe, and their own sanity.
