Synopsis

There's no such thing as an average everyday existence for 13-year-old Paula, who lives with her mother in a small town. Paula's view of things has been sharpened by an extensive and consistent diet of horror films. According to her, extra-terrestrials are busy infiltrating humankind and transforming earthlings into friendly, one-dimensional, emotionless beings. Even her nearest and dearest have been affected by the invasion. Yet there is one person who does not appear to have fallen victim to the aliens- Jens. The first time she notices him is while he is busy stealing something at the supermarket. Jens is introverted and full of pent-up anger, which fascinates Paula. She discovers that Jens' parents died in an accident- and decides to try and find some way of approaching him. But Jens has no intention of hanging around just to satisfy Paula's curiosity; he has plans to make off with a stolen van. On an impulse, Paula decides to jump into the van with him and drive away.
