In a cosmic mixup, aliens mistakenly abduct three children but quickly return them unharmed to their terrified mother, wiping the kids' memories of what happened that fateful night. Over the next twenty five years, conflicting opinions surrounding the event shape each of the siblings differently, until one desperate alien returns to ask for their help to save his dying planet.

At the same time, a wary military must be persuaded that the aliens are not a threat.

While the situation begins seriously, the surprising cure leads to fun. And once the military understands the aliens are not invading but rather appealing for aid, everybody unites to save the day.

CE-V (The Fifth Kind) is a universal family reunion everyone on Earth will enjoy.
