In the not too distant future, strange goings-on from outer space, known as ‘phases,’ alter the Earth’s entire population of ants. Operating as a kind of hive mind, the ants begin building geometric towers in the Arizona desert and act aggressively towards the humans living there. A team of scientists venture out to investigate the super smart ants, only to discover that the insects have some big plans for mankind and the team unwittingly scored themselves front row seats.
