UFO encounters, alleged alien abduction, and the question behind “soul containers.” Explore Whitley Strieber's accounts, Bob Lazar's attributed claims, Dionisio Llanca, and Brazil's Operation Prato-era UAP records with Bill Van Nort.
What do they want from us? A roadside repair in Argentina. Lights entering homes in Brazil. A face beside a bed. Unknown Origin follows the people inside unsettling alien visitation accounts—and asks what the sources actually establish about unfamiliar intelligence and the possibility of alien life.
