About the Film
Beyond the colony walls lies a world Eli has always felt was calling him.
When an unexpected journey carries him into a vast and unfamiliar world, he must rely on unlikely companions while learning to distinguish the many voices competing for his attention.
To find his way home, Eli must choose between the loudest voice... and the quiet Humming that has guided him all along.
Meet Eli
"Sometimes the quietest voices lead you the furthest."
A curious young worker ant who has always sensed there is something beyond the colony walls. While others hear only the voices around them, Eli begins to hear something different—a quiet Humming that challenges everything he has ever known.
