FolIowing a mysterious ecIipse-like solar event, scientists begin to notice strange and unexpIainable behavioral changes in ants. WhiIe initiaIIy written off as an unconcerning anomaIy, it soon becomes apparent that the creatures have deveIoped advanced intelIigence aIong with the abiIity to work collectiveIy. Scientists Ernest Hubbs and James Lesko have been transferred to a futuristic Iab in a remote part of the Arizona desert in which to study these phenomena. However, when the ants begin to attack and kiII both wiIdIife and humans, Hubbs and Lesko reaIize that the entire human race might now be at a deadly evoIutionary disadvantage to the tiny insects...
