The story is set during a lonely summer holiday and follows introverted 11-year-old Little Allan, who is roped into acting as a human antenna for his old, UFO-obsessed neighbour. An invasion fleet is coming, and apparently, the only way to save the Earth is by communicating through Little Allan’s brainwaves. But what they actually find is not exactly an invasion fleet. When the rickety antenna construction collapses, Little Allan is only barely saved by the alien girl, Britney, who is doing a school project about the primitive human race. Now Little Allan has to help her get home, while she becomes fascinated with this little specimen of the human species: why does this boy keep saying that he is fine, even though his parents have just got divorced, and he’s clearly not? Is that how all little humans work?
