Most aliens-on-earth movies move towards destruction, usually of the planet-wide kind, but the crux of Arrival is creation: the writing of a word, the beginning of a bond, the start of a life.—Craig Mathieson (2016 Mathieson, C. (2016). Arrival review: Sci-fi turned inside out as alien contact gets personal. The Age, 8 November. https://www.theage.com.au/entertainment/movies/arrival-review-scifi-turned-inside-out-as-alien-contact-gets-personal-20161107-gsjokf.html [Google Scholar], para. 11)Sometimes the Alien’s Call was motivated by no more and no less than the aim of awakening “the souls that had stumbled away from the place of light. They were to awaken them and shake them up, that they might lift their faces to the place of light.”—Hans Jonas (Ginza. Der Schatz oder das Mandäer, p. 308)
