Description: In December 2022, Dan Forester, a biology teacher and former Iraq War veteran, fails to secure a job at a research center. During a Christmas party where they are watching the World Cup, soldiers from the year 2051 arrive with a dire warning: humanity is facing extinction due to an alien species known as the White Spikes. In response, global militaries begin sending troops to the future, but fewer than 20% survive, leading to a worldwide draft.
A year into the draft, with an increasing anti-war movement, hopes for humanity’s survival diminish. Dan is drafted and joins other recruits for basic training. They are sent to Miami Beach in the future, but most perish after being dropped in the wrong location. Colonel Forester orders the remaining draftees to rescue nearby lab personnel before the area is sterilized. While the lab personnel are found dead, the draftees manage to recover their research.
Dan communicates with command and is instructed to proceed to a testing area to retrieve crucial data. After a violent encounter with numerous White Spikes, the surviving draftees are incapacitated by aerial munitions. They later wake up in a military camp in the Dominican Republic. Dan is summoned by Colonel Forester, who reveals herself to be his adult daughter. She recruits him for a mission to capture a rare female White Spike. During the mission, they successfully cage the female, only to face an overwhelming number of males. As a helicopter extracts the female, chaos ensues. Dan and his daughter, Muri, escape to a beach and call for rescue. Dan is eventually taken to the location of the Jumplink, likely situated in the Atlantic Ocean.
