On a remote alien world thought to be devoid of intelligent life, sisters Kathy and Nina set out on a routine adventure to explore a nearby canyon. But when an earthquake traps them and they come face-to-face with six-foot-tall ant-like creatures, their journey takes an extraordinary turn. Forced to work together to survive, the humans and alien insectoids bridge the gap between their species, sharing moments of understanding despite the vast differences that separate them. As their bond deepens, Kathy and Nina learn that first contact can be as much about trust as it is about discovery.
