In the heart of the big rain forest is hidden the city of the domes, populated by thousands of farmer ants...

This film relates the story of the extraordinary events which took place there within two days which nearly cost the life of its inhabitants...
Human footsteps : a genuine turn at ant level. The city of the domes is ripped open.
Then a series of catastrophes break out on it, up to war : the city is the target of a civilisation of nomad and warrior ants which tries to invade it...

Also available : FORMAT FOURMIS (27'): the making of CITY OF ANTS.
