The film is based around a boy who see an alien in his garden. He then goes on a search for this creature leaving food for him as he does. One night he's sleeping outside waiting for this creature to show itself when an alien presents himself to the boy. He takes him to his room and hides him in there from his family. The next day he tells his brother Michael and sister Gertie about the alien and tells them that they have to keep it a secret. The alien soon learns to speak English and communicate with Elliot that he wants to "phone home". Michael then notices a decline in the aliens health and how Elliot starts calling himself "we".
