The ultimate story of despised minorities forever adrift in the darkness of outer space. As a last resort – born out of their loneliness and despair – they are forced to make an ominous pact with those responsible for their plight, in the hope that they will finally be offered refuge at home on Earth.

Teleplay by Harlan Ellison (The Terminator, ‘The Outer Limits’) and Josh Olson (A History of Violence), based on a short story by Harlan Ellison. Directed by Jonathan Frakes (Star Trek: Insurrection, Star Trek: First Contact). Starring John Hurt (V for Vendetta, Harry Potter), Brian Dennehy (Assault on Precinct 13, Cocoon), James Denton (‘Desperate Housewives’, ‘The Pretender’)

Masters of Science Fiction is an American television anthology series by the same creators as Masters of Horror. The show debuted on ABC on August 4, 2007 at 10PM for a run of four episodes. It was originally scheduled to run in six parts, but two episodes were removed from the schedule for undisclosed reasons. The show follows a similar format as Masters of Horror, with each hour long episode taking the form of a separate short film adaptation of a story by a respected member of the science fiction community, hence the Masters in the title.
