Synopsis
It’s 1985 in an alternate reality and Berkeley record store clerk Nick Brady begins to experience strange visions transmitted from an extra-terrestrial source he calls VALIS. He and his wife move to Los Angeles where he becomes a successful music executive with a secret mission to overthrow the oppressive government led by US President Fremont. With the help of his best friend, sci-fi writer Philip K. Dick, and a beautiful, mysterious woman named Silvia, Nick finds himself drawn into a conspiracy of cosmic, mind-shattering proportions. Although it might cost them their freedom or even their lives, they join forces to expose the dangerous truth about the corrupt regime.
