Swarms
by Edgar Borges
Description
A plague of flying insects is damaging an undefined city in an abstract present. Vibrant and disturbing swarms darken the sky, while violence spread in the streets and the number of suicides increases exponentially.
Five young men take shelter in a house away in the woods, far from the collective delusion, fear and sufferance that reigns in the city. Voluntarily confined, the five friends will face solitude and despair; they will go through their own memories and dreads, living in an oneiric atmosphere between life and death.
