On March 13, 1997, thousands of people in Arizona witnessed the largest mass UFO sighting in U.S. history—now famously known as The Phoenix Lights. Among them was 10-year-old Claire, who felt as if the lights called to her. Years later, Claire, now a photographer, is still chasing that moment, hoping to capture the lights on camera and finally make sense of what she saw.
When a mysterious tip leads her deep into the Arizona desert during a deadly heatwave with her UFO streamer boyfriend and troubled brother in tow, they encounter a vulnerable immigrant family whose plight complicates her mission. As tensions rise, Claire searches for the answers she seeks on terra firma and among the stars.
