Plot Summary

Deep in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, a team of scientists led by Dr. Emily Carter (Sophie Turner) and Professor David Lang (Javier Bardem) are studying a mysterious, genetically mutated species of insects. What starts as a groundbreaking discovery soon turns into a terrifying nightmare when the swarm escapes containment.

As the insects multiply at an uncontrollable rate, they begin attacking everything in their path—decimating entire towns and turning humans into hosts for their ever-growing colony. The government orders a complete lockdown, but it’s too late: the swarm is spreading across continents.

With time running out, Dr. Carter and her team must uncover the origin of the mutation and find a way to stop the infestation before humanity is overrun. But the more they dig, the more they realize… this plague wasn’t an accident. Someone—or something—created the swarm.
