"In Saltriver, in the comfort of his own home, an overworked and sleepy Bob accidently spills his coffee on his computer, glitching and plunging his Tour Guide Advert into the vast darkness of space. Instead of attracting tourists, his advert attracts curious extra-terrestrials. Hectic. Fearful of their motives, Bob reluctantly takes them on his tour around Cape Town. However, tensions defrost as he realizes they might not be as threatening as they seem, just a little mischievous. Friendships form through their otherworldly antics, and Bob’s business takes an unexpected intergalactic turn into success. "
