In the year 2150, humanity has exhausted all of Earth's resources and is now looking to other planets for salvation. A group of scientists and soldiers is sent to a distant planet, Kepler-452b, in the hopes of finding a new home for humanity. The team arrives on the planet and begins exploring its lush forests, crystal-clear rivers, and towering mountains. They soon discover that the planet is teeming with life, including a sentient species of humanoid creatures that call themselves the "Anu." The Anu are a highly spiritual and advanced society, living in harmony with nature and each other. They possess a deep connection to the planet and its ecosystems, and they view the arrival of the humans as a threat to their way of life.
