Product Description

Radio astronomer Zane Ziminski has been listening to cosmic noise in the middle of the night for years. It's his obsession, and the bane of his tough, successful girlfriend Char. All night long, he sits in a lonely station monitoring every frequency, every wavelength, every millimeter of space for signs of life and hearing nothing but silence. At the end of yet another night's search, the delicate sensors are suddenly alive with a loud, clear radio transmission from space, a shockwave. This is what Zane has been waiting for. What the world has been waiting for. Or is it?

“If you can’t tend to your own planet…”

It starts with a unique Arctic pull-back scene (by Dreamquest Images) to set the mood of the movie. One of the main characters in this presentation is the lush visual landscapes. Filming locations: Tepozlan, Taxco, Tula, and Mexico City, Mexico. Estudos Churbusco Estudios América. Bishop & Pasadena, California. It is also fun to see the actors from the time and to try to remember where you saw them before. A spiffy what if. What if, while listening for signs of life out there, it is already here? What if you found out what they were up to? What if they found out that you found out? What if you found out that they found out that you found out? Do not overlook the “subtle” references to “Greenhouse Gasses” peppered throughout the story. It is more than an arrival. Looks like there is going to be a hot time in the old town tonight.
