In a single moment, the entire life of a girl Una is turned upside down; her grandpa is abducted by aliens and her mum collapses and ends up in a hospital. Una discovers that her grandpa is an alien himself whose spaceship hit the planet some time ago. But his pilot is still here! The small grumpy robot and Una have less than 24 hours to find and rescue her grandpa. This extraordinary adventure will lead to a new friendship, rational robotic logic will be replaced with emotions, and Una's selfless love will save her partly alien family.
