‘Invisible Sister’ Plot
Invisible Sister revolves around teen sisters Cleo (Blanchard) and Molly (Berelc). Cleo, the younger sibling, is studious and smart, but she is not as popular as her outgoing sporty older sister.
When Mr. Perkins (Désert), Cleo’s science teacher, gives her a new class assignment, she decides to experiment on a mysterious substance, in hopes to turn it into a solid crystal. She brings her science project home, and accidentally spills some of the solution on a moth, turning it invisible. Later, when Molly comes to her room, the moth falls into her drink, and after consuming it, she becomes completely invisible.
When Cleo realizes what happened, she must help Molly out with all her social and sports events. When Molly is expected to be at her Lacrosse game, Cleo wears a costume and pretends to be her older sister. With Molly’s help on the field, Cleo is able to keep up in the game. But, eventually, Molly’s boyfriend, Coug (Fryberger) questions why she won’t visit him, and Cleo’s best friend, George (Brar), finds out about her invisibility.
Cleo works with George to find a solution and turn Molly back to normal. After examining her DNA, they realize they need to quickly create an antidote to reverse the effects, because if they wait too long, her condition could become permanent. When they determine that they need another moth to make the antidote, Molly and Cleo head to a cemetery to find one.
While at the cemetery, the sisters argue, but eventually work out their issues. They head to the school where George is waiting. Cleo and George try duplicate the original experiment, but it turns out to be too complicated. They turn to Carter (Will Meyers), a governor’s scholar who has the knowhow to help.
With help from Coug and Carter, Cleo and George create the antidote for Molly, and make her visible again. When Mr. Perkins learns of the student’s project, he encourages Cleo to present her discovery to a panel of esteemed scientists.
