Silence is not enough.
Day one destroyed their home. Day two might destroy everything.
Immediately following the events at their farm, Evelyn Abbott and her children are forced into the devastated outside world with a newborn and dwindling supplies. They find shelter with Emmett, a traumatized family friend who wants no part of anyone else's survival. But teenage Regan has intercepted a radio signal she believes points to somewhere the creatures can't reach — and she's not waiting for permission to follow it.

SpoilersSynopsis — contains plot detailsSynopsis↓
The film opens on Day 1 of the invasion in flashback — the creatures descend and Lee Abbott barely gets his family out alive. Then: immediately after Lee's death. Evelyn (Emily Blunt) packs the children — deaf Regan (Millicent Simmonds), Marcus (Noah Jupe), and the newborn — and abandons the farm for good.
They follow markers to an abandoned factory and find Emmett (Cillian Murphy), a family friend emptied out by grief. He wants nothing to do with them. Evelyn convinces him otherwise.
Regan traces a looping radio broadcast — Bobby Darin's "Beyond the Sea" — and figures out it's a beacon from an island the creatures can't reach. She slips away to find it, forcing Emmett to follow. The film splits: the two of them fighting through ravaged coastal territory, including a community of survivors who have turned on each other, while Marcus accidentally triggers a creature back at the factory and Evelyn ventures out alone for oxygen for the newborn.
Regan and Emmett reach the island. It's real. Regan broadcasts her hearing aid frequency — the one that incapacitates the creatures — over the island's transmitter. The islanders now have the means to fight back. The film ends on that signal going out, the implication spreading wider than the frame.
