Plot

In December 2022, biology teacher and former Green Beret Dan Forester failed to get a job at the Army Research Laboratory. Meanwhile, soldiers from the year 2051 interrupt the World Cup and announce that in November 2048, aliens called White Spikes appear in Russia and wipe out most life on Earth within a span of three years. Many countries send their militaries and issued conscriptions into the future through the JumpLink, a rudimentary wormhole device brought by the future soldiers, but the survival rate is extremely low. Dan eventually receives a draft notice, and military personnel attach a metal band to his arm that allows them to track his location at all times. Dan's wife, Emmy, urges him to ask his estranged father, James, for help removing the armband, but when Dan goes to ask James for help, the two get into a heated argument due to James abandoning Dan and his mother when Dan was young after James returned from the Vietnam War with severe PTSD. Dan leaves and resigns himself to the draft.
