As the story unfolds, a series of strange events lead Sam to suspect that something otherworldly may have returned with her from space. The film is set to commence shooting in Ireland next month, operating under an interim SAG-AFTRA agreement. It’s currently being presented by the Highland Film Group at the Toronto International Film Festival.
