In a modern apartment complex in a Canadian city, the day begins like any other until a series of strange events start to unfold. The story follows a brilliant, yet somewhat eccentric doctor who finds himself trapped in a dangerous biological experiment. Following a covert intervention aimed at developing a new treatment for impotence, a parasite is unleashed and begins to spread rapidly among the building's residents.

As the strange organism seeks new hosts, tensions escalate and paranoia takes hold of the tenants. What starts as an isolated outbreak transforms into a contagious horror: those affected become violent and carnivorous, driven by an insatiable desire to spread the infection. Amid the chaos, some tenants try to understand what is happening, while others are swept away by madness and carnage.

With a dense atmosphere and a provocative narrative, the film questions how far science can go in its quest for solutions to human problems and raises unsettling inquiries about desire, violence, and loss of control. The characters, trapped in their own urban apocalypse, must fight not only against the parasite but also against their own internal demons in this disturbing blend of horror and social critique.
