A tense alien-invasion thriller that traps a group of friends in an apartment as an incomprehensible extraterrestrial force methodically hunts humanity, prioritizing spectacle and survival over character depth.

When strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, people are drawn outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth. Now the band of survivors must fight for their lives as the world unravels around them.
