Hey Guys, Welcome to the channel. In this video, we will be watching the movie titled
“Proximity” from the year 2020. So, Let’s get started. Turn on subtitles and spoilers
ahead.
The story starts in 1979 in Wrangell Alaska. A man named Karl is seen driving on his way
back home from work. The frequencies in the car radio start to go haywire, as Karl tries
to fix it. Just then, the car ahead of Karl flies into the sky and falls back on the ground
right in front of him. Karl gets out to check on the person inside the car and finds a mysterious
aircraft flying in the sky.
Karl tries to run away from it, but he fails to get out of reach of that unidentified flying
object which soon pulls him inside and takes him away with it.
The story moves to the present time. We see Isaac, a young and bright NASA scientist from
Pasadena California. One day at work, Isaac receives an audio signal from Canada on one
of NASA’s satellites. Isaac intercepts that signal, and later receives data from an unknown
origin.
Outside of work, Isaac has some problems of his own, for which he has to see a therapist.
To deal with his mental problems, he is suggested by his therapist to keep a daily vlog of what
he does and speak his mind on it.
So, Isaac begins vlogging his daily life. One day, he goes hiking with a camera to vlog
his journey. As Isaac is speaking to his camera, he notices something in the far off distance
and turns his camera toward it. Many people from the city also notice what Isaac saw:
a huge asteroid falling from the sky. And Isaac, of all people, is the one nearest to
the crash site.
Isaac looks totally puzzled as two fighter jets fly past him. Soon, the police and national
security force also arrive at the site. Isaac hurriedly gets his things and hides from them.
The agents fail to spot Isaac, and he begins to move forward to the direction of the crash
site. Isaac finally sees a huge UFO hovering in the air. He picks up his camera and starts
to shoot, but the UFO disappears into thin air just within seconds.
He looks around confused, and an alien has appeared behind him. Isaac senses the presence
of the alien, and nervously turns around. He sees the alien standing before him, and
calmly presses the button on his camera to record everything that he was seeing in front
of him. The alien then casually turns behind and walks away from him. Seeing the alien
leave, Isaac makes a run for his life. He starts running in the jungle, and suddenly
he loses consciousness.
3 days later, Isaac wakes up and finds himself far away from the place where he first saw
the UFO. He feels severe pain in his arm, but has no visible wounds. He quickly checks
his camera, and finds the footage he recorded of the alien. He also sees that he was abducted
by the aliens, after which he has no recollection of what happened next.
Isaac goes home, and his hands feel weird. He stares at his reflection on the TV, which
instantly vanishes. His hands feel like they’re entering another dimension or reality. He
focuses intensely and the vanished TV reappears in front of him. Isaac realizes that he now
possesses a superpower.
He goes to the doctor and finds out that he has a near impossible thin fracture in his
arm. And there’s no sign of any wounds or scar tissue on his arm.
At work, Isaac shows his friend the power he gained after disappearing for 3 days. But
his friend isn’t amused by what Isaac did. It’s almost like Isaac was the only one
who saw the cup disappear.
Desperate to tell the world about his encounter with the alien, Isaac uploads the recorded
footage from his camera on the internet. The video gets online and it soon goes viral.
He gets contacted by many people who watched his video and had questions for him. Isaac
even gets called out for making a fake video to get attention. Desperate to prove that
he was really abducted by aliens, Isaac decides to give an interview. He tells everything
about what happened that day, but even the interviewer doesn’t believe him completely.
After that interview, more people start to believe that Isaac fabricated that video to
get the media attention. Isaac is frustrated by being called a con artist and a liar. So
he looks online for people who they say to have been abducted by aliens, just like himself.
He finds a blog article of a person whose story matches that of his. He goes to meet
that person in a cafe, and while waiting, he notices that the things around him are
starting to move on their own.
Then, a girl named Sarah enters the cafe. The two of them sit down and talk about the
countless references of UFO’s throughout ancient history. They believe that the aliens
are real, and them being abducted by aliens is proof of it. Sarah tells Isaac about a
man named Karl who claimed to be abducted by aliens back in 1979. He told everyone about
his story, but no one believed him. And he soon went missing. They know that they have
to be careful if they want to know why they were taken by the aliens.
Back home, Isaac makes multiple copies of the footage and he decides to mail them to
different people who are firm believers of extra terrestrial life form and its presence
on earth. While sending the mail, he meets with a man named Keith, who happens to be
a writer. Keith gives his card to Isaac and offers to help him get his story out and prove
his innocence. Isaac thinks long and hard before finally deciding to get Keith’s help.
He goes to Keith’s office, who proposes him to take a lie detector test to prove that
he had indeed come in contact with the aliens, and wasn’t lying about anything.
Isaac has nothing to hide, so he decides to take the test. Keith connects him to a lie
detector kit, and starts to ask questions. Isaac confidently answers all the questions
given to him, and Keith realizes that Isaac wasn’t lying about his encounter with the
aliens. He excuses himself and goes out of his office. Then, two men in black suits come
into the office, and take Isaac with them. Isaac tries to run, but gets shot instead.
He gets carried by two robots into a room, and is then tied to a chair. Through the window
of that room, he sees that Sarah has also been abducted by the same people who brought
him here. Then, a man appears on the screen in front of Isaac. He introduces himself as
Agent Graves, and tells Isaac that they need to run some tests on him.
He asks Isaac to focus on the items put in front of him. But, Isaac is too confused and
concerned about his and Sarah’s safety to focus on what he was being asked to do. Agent
Graves asks Isaac again to focus on the item. And this time, Isaac does as he is told. He
stares intently at the item, but fails to make it vanish. Then, Agent Graves directly
asks Isaac if he has been in contact with Karl. Although he has never met Karl, Isaac
refuses to cooperate with them. He breaks himself free from the chair, and attacks the
two robots who brought him in that room.
He finds the room where Sarah is kept, and uses his power to open the door. The two of
them start running to get out of there, and are chased by robots. Isaac uses his powers
again to open the main door. They escape out of there and find themselves in Costa Rica.
Agent Graves puts all his men to search for Isaac and Sarah, who have reached a nearby
town. They have to get in contact with Karl, if they want to know what’s going on. Isaac
asks a lady if they have the internet. And the lady gives them the address of a person
who she believes might have a computer with internet connection.
They go to that address and meet with Zed, a hacker. Isaac asks Zed to help them find
information on Karl. While the robots are searching for Isaac And Sarah, Zed takes them
to his place, which is protected from the satellites. It means that they are completely
safe from any kind of trackers that were put inside them. Zed begins his work, and finds
out that Karl was hiding out in Canada. He connects a call to Karl, who immediately cuts
off the connection after seeing Isaac. Zed once again connects the call, and this time
Isaac tells Karl about everything about the aliens, the secret agency who are after them,
and also about the data which he received at work, which he is sure came from the aliens.
Karl gets surprised to hear that Isaac received data back from the aliens. He asks Isaac to
send the data to him. Zed hacks into the NASA satellites and sends the data to Karl, who
gets to work. He downloads that data and decodes it into audio format which says that the aliens
are coming on October 1st with the exact location of where they are planning to land. Isaac
realizes that there are only 5 days left until the aliens land on earth.
Karl warns them to be careful from the secret agency, and to not be caught by them, before
shutting down his computer which cuts off the connection. Isaac says that they have
to go to Canada and meet with Karl before the aliens come to earth. Sarah is scared
to see the aliens once again, but Isaac convinces her to come with him. Zed is also excited
and asks if he can join them.
The three of them then fly to Canada, and Agent Graves also finds out that they are
getting out of Costa Rica. After reaching Canada, they take a train to
go to the exact location of Karl. But, the robots have easily tracked them and are after
them. Zed hands Isaac and Sarah each a mask to wear. Since the robots use facial recognition
to identify their targets, the idea is that the mask will confuse them. But the robots
are advanced. So it identifies Isaac behind the mask, and shoots at him. Isaac manages
to save himself, and they somehow fight off the robots, and finally reach the location
where Karl has been hiding out for years.
After seeing them outside his house, Karl gets out with a gun in his hands. Isaac in
a panic confirms that he was the one who gave him the data sent by the aliens. Karl then
immediately deactivates the tracking device that was put in Isaac and Sarah’s arms.
Karl tells his story that ever since he escaped from the secret agency, he has been hiding
out in Canada. For years he has been trying to get in contact with the aliens, and he
was able to create something that could translate the audio data sent by aliens into English.
And as per the message received by Isaac, the aliens will land on earth in exactly 2
days.
The two days pass by pretty quickly, and it’s the day of arrival of the aliens. Isaac suddenly
feels something weird. The cabin shakes for a moment and then it stops. Karl says that
the aliens are almost here.
Isaac goes out of the house, and starts to look around for the UFO or aliens. He wanders
around the jungle, and feels the presence of an alien right behind him. He turns around
and asks what it wants.
Now, the aliens are sitting with them inside the cabin, and are answering all their questions.
The aliens are searching for the origin of everything. They, much like humans, want to
know where and how exactly the universe started. So, they abducted humans, the closest link
to Jesus, who started everything.
Sarah then asks about why they were feeling pain in their arms. The aliens then put a
device on her arm, which harmlessly dismantles it into two pieces. They had put a tracking
device inside her arm to keep track of her. Isaac also gets ready to get the tracking
device out of his arm, but just then, the secret agents arrive outside the cabin.
Agent Graves warns everyone to surrender. If they don’t do so, then all of them will
lose their lives. Karl gets out with a gun in his hands. Graves then questions Karl about
where his father is.
The person inside the car which fell in front of Karl in 1979 was none other than agent
Graves’ father. Since that incident, Graves’ father has never been seen. Karl tells him
that he knows nothing about what happened to his father. But Graves refuses to believe
him, and orders his men to shoot him. Karl gets shot, and Sarah runs outside to check
on him. Isaac yells out to Sarah telling her to get in, but she too gets shot by the secret
agents.
Isaac’s arm finally gets attached, and the aliens tell him to focus on his powers, before
vanishing into thin air. Isaac does exactly as he is told. He focuses
intensely, and the time around him starts to slow down. He saves his friends just before
the bullets hit them, and moves through time and space to safety.
Agent Graves and his men are left in shock to see everyone disappear right before them.
We see that the aliens come back and heal the injured body of Karl and Sarah. With the
powers given to Isaac by the aliens, they are now moving completely free in front of
Agent Graves, and are invisible to him.
Six months later, Sarah and Isaac are living together, and are madly in love with each
other.
Karl and Zed, on the other hand, start working for an underground tech intelligence agency.
As for agent Graves, he gets fired from his job.
