Pícnic extraterrestre

After a series of brief and inexplicable visits to Earth, the aliens continue their journey without showing the slightest interest in humanity: they don't communicate, they don't invade, they don't destroy. The extraterrestrials simply spend some time here and then leave, like careless hikers, leaving behind a trail of incomprehensible and dangerous objects. The places where they land become epicenters of strange phenomena, sealed off by governments and coveted by scientists, the military, and smugglers. Redrick Schuhart, a lab technician at the Harmond International Institute for Extraterrestrial Cultures, ventures into the Zone after hours. He's a stalker: someone who risks his life to acquire alien artifacts, which he then trades on the lucrative black market. But each expedition transforms something in his mind, in his destiny. As the Zone reveals its secrets, Redrick becomes obsessed with finding the Golden Ball, a mythical object that –so they say– is capable of granting what a person desires without even knowing it.
