In a dystopian, near-future Los Angeles, California, a couple, Katie (Callies) and Will (Holloway) Bowman, live with two of their three children, under a regime of military occupation by an organization known as the Colony Transitional Authority. They are part of a larger invading force, ostensibly of extraterrestrial origin, who are referred to as the Hosts, and as the Raps, apparently a reference to raptors (the logo of their human forces features a stylized bird of prey). It is said of them that "no one ever sees them". The Hosts built an enormous wall, as tall as a skyscraper and hundreds of meters long, that surrounds Los Angeles and other major cities (now called Blocs), while various buildings still display severe damage from the armed conflict during the invasion, known as the Arrival. The geographical extent of the alien invasion is unclear, but it was presumably worldwide. The occupying forces shown to the viewers are all human, speak American English, and consist of black-and-red-uniformed militarized police with automatic weapons and armored personnel carriers.
