ABOUT THE FILM
Scientists race to stop the spread of a new invasive species - but first they have to find it. Dubbed the "Murder Hornet" by popular media, the most real threat of the Asian Giant Hornet may be to the environment and food supply - and its presence may indicate an even deeper problem facing our modern world. From government scientists to community volunteers, a coordinated effort combines with bleeding edge technologies to bring balance to our ecosystem before it’s too late.
