In 2065, Earth is infested by alien life forms known as Phantoms. By physical contact Phantoms consume the Gaia spirit of living beings, killing them instantly, though a minor contact may only result in an infection. The surviving humans live in "barrier cities", areas protected by an energy shield that prevents Phantoms from entering, and are engaged in an ongoing struggle to free the planet. After being infected by a Phantom during one of her experiments, Aki Ross (Ming-Na) and her mentor, Doctor Sid (Donald Sutherland), uncover a means of defeating the Phantoms by gathering eight spirit signatures that, when joined, can negate the Phantoms. Aki is searching for the sixth spirit in the ruins of New York City when she is cornered by Phantoms but is rescued by Gray Edwards (Alec Baldwin) and his squad "Deep Eyes", consisting of Ryan Whittaker (Ving Rhames), Neil Fleming (Steve Buscemi) and Jane Proudfoot (Peri Gilpin). It is revealed that Gray was once romantically involved with Aki.

Rattrapé par un rêve de gosse, il s'est en effet mis en tête d'acheter un voilier, lui qui n'a jamais navigué sur autre chose qu'un bateau gonflable. Les tarifs du constructeur local ne le refroidissent qu'un temps. Mais quand il se décide enfin, l'objet de sa convoitise est en rupture de stock et il doit se contenter d'un dériveur d'occasion. Après tout, qu'importe la coque de noix, pourvu qu'on ait l'ivresse.
