Far away in the universe, a planet AMIKUS is facing serious pollution and a depletion of its natural resources. Chen Feng Jiao (Carrie Wong) is tasked with seeking a new livable planet and to locate the whereabouts of a defector TA1-2345. To blend in with the Earthlings, Feng Jiao and her comrades disguise themselves as a typical Singaporean family and everyone is assigned a "human" name. Living next to the Yang family, Feng Jiao and Yang Tian Sheng (Shaun Chen) share a mutual dislike for each other which eventually turns into love. While Chen Xiang Lin (Aloysius Pang) kisses Yang Tian Ning (Paige Chua) and the latter becomes pregnant. Another neighbor Zhou Zhi Qiang discovers the true identities of the Chens and uses it to take advantage of Chen Xiao Long (Brandon Wong). With their leader falling in love and a human-alien baby on its way, will our friends from afar complete their mission? And can they uncover the defector who has been taking on a human-form and living among them?

An anthology series skirting the line between documentary and fiction, those films more on the documentary side being scripted in nature. The stories told, whether a documentary, pure fiction or something closer to the middle, are distinctly Canadian in nature. That Canadiana may be in the topic itself, the setting, and/or the characters dealing with the issue from a perspective unique to Canada.

Oscar® nominee Nigel Hawthorne (The Madness of King George) stars as a renowned surgeon in the midst of a personal and professional crisis in this compelling miniseries.
