It’s Thursday and time for some more American science fiction! In 2016’s Arrival, Louise’s daughter dies at the age of twelve from an incurable illness. Louise is the best linguist in the world, so when extraterrestrials come to earth, she is given the task of translating their language. As she starts to study it, she begins to have flashback-like visions of her daughter... but what do they mean? Can Close Encounters of the Third Kind beat Arrival? It’s time to find out!
