Des faits étranges se produisent un peu partout dans le monde : des avions qui avaient disparu durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale sont retrouvés au Mexique en parfait état de marche, un cargo est découvert échoué au beau milieu du désert de Gobi. Dans l'Indiana, pendant qu'une coupure d'électricité paralyse la banlieue, Roy Neary, un réparateur de câbles, voit une "soucoupe volante" passer au-dessus de sa voiture. D'autres personnes sont également témoins de ce type de phénomène : Barry Guiler, un petit garçon de quatre ans, est réveillé par le bruit de ses jouets qui se mettent en route. Cherchant à savoir d'où proviennent ces ovnis, Roy Neary se heurte aux rigoureuses consignes de silence imposées par le gouvernement fédéral. Obsédé par ce qu'il a vu et hanté par une image de montagne qu'il essaie désespérément de reconstituer, il est abandonné par sa femme Ronnie et ses enfants. Il n'y a que Jillian, la mère de Barry, qui le comprenne.

Top baseball pitcher Bingo Long is fed up with how his Negro League team owner treats him, so he forms his own lineup, recruiting big-hitting Leon Carter and Charlie Snow, who dreams of playing in the majors. Boycotted by black teams, Long's outfit play minor league white teams, earning more attention as entertainers than as players. However, their success wins them a chance to play again in the Negro League, this time as equals.

This is an animated glimpse of the greatest city that ever was, with a hint of its magic power and a record of its downfall. The dilemma expressed is not so much one of religious faith, but in the administration of religious duties.
