Encounters is a four-part docuseries, directed by Yon Motskin, that examines different cases where people saw unexplained phenomena, like strange lights, alien spaceships, or even aliens themselves, and how those sightings were dismissed by both the federal government and the people in their lives who didn’t experience the phenomena firsthand.

It is not just poor urban planning that is to blame. Encounterism relates how technologies reduce the possibilities for random encounters – by allowing us to remain barricaded inside our SUVs, by using our smartphones or headphones to shut others out, or by avoiding going outside at all and staying home to binge on Netflix or shop online.

The idea of empathy runs through the book, but there is also anger. Anger at what he sees as the misuse and misappropriation of our public spaces and therefore our private destinies.

Our Take: The other cases examined by Encounters include a 1994 alien sighting in Zimbabwe, a close encounter at a school in Wales, and reports of lights seen over the Fukushima nuclear power plant after the 2011 disaster there.
