We are not alone.
The year is 1977, the place: Sonoyaita, Mexico. A scientific group in lead of French professor Claude Lacombe (François Truffaut) is investigating strange events that has happened around the entire world.
Overwhelmed by half-crazed eye whitenesses, they discover seven World War II planes that look brand new with clean metal and fuel tanks full. It showed out to be Flight 1, the planes that has been missing since 1946! At the same time at the Indianapolis airport, pilots are forced to share the sky with a large, bright object. And then the power goes in Indianapolis.
For electrician Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) this means only a night-out call. He was driving in his car towards the city and then as he was frighted by a bright light, that burned his skin. And then as suddenly as the light appeared it disappeared. This event changed Roy's life forever. Forced by a strong, unknown feeling this simple man began his search for something, he didn't know what was. He could feel the sudden changes: in everything he looked at, he saw a shape of something, whatever he was listening to, he heard an unknown tone. This search became more important and necessary than his family; it could drive him to insanity!
At the same time Lacombe has managed to understand the "sound messages". It showed out to be a location, known by a great, strange mountain, and a time! To clear the area, the government faked a serious air-pollution that scared the people away.
At the right place and time, the sky was suddenly lightened up, so the clouds looked out like a sharp relief. The greatest discovery in the history of mankind: we are not alone.
