On the night of a once in a millennia event, the convergence of a planetary alignment and a lunar eclipse, 6 friends gather together to have a viewing party to celebrate. As the eclipse nears its peak, the group prepares to head to the roof only to be stopped in their tracks when they all receive an emergency alert telling them not to look at the moon.
