About
A linguist is recruited by the US Army to communicate with extraterrestrials whose spacecraft have arrived on Earth.
After twelve alien spacecraft appear above locations around the world, the United States Army brings in linguist Louise Banks (Amy Adams) to find a way to communicate with the visitors. Colonel Weber (Forest Whitaker) also recruits physicist Ian Donnelly (Jeremy Renner), and the team travels to a craft hovering over Montana. There Banks and Donnelly encounter two seven-limbed, cephalopod-like beings the team calls heptapods. The pair set to work on the creatures' written language, which uses logograms, and pass their findings to other nations. As Banks continues her study, she begins to see images of her daughter.
