    • Synopsis
    • Humanity has stopped listening; it’s stripping the Earth bare. Widow Clara is tending her orchard, unaware that her rotting fruit carry the first wave of mutated spores.

      Ambitious single mother, Eve, is close to a breakthrough at the GM laboratories that will unwittingly escalate our genetic breakdown.
      While Clara is babysitting her young grandson James, she is infected, triggering her body’s systematic breakdown. He watches, terrified, as a new species of human evolves.

      The Earth has found a way to fight back. Humans will no longer be the dominant race. Nature will reclaim the earth, and our mutated genes will help secure our fate.
