Set in the near future, 'Eixam' follows Lluc, a man who loses everything and flees to an isolated village that functions as a utopian sanctuary for outcasts. In this secluded community, neighbors care for one another in a seemingly idyllic environment, offering Lluc a chance at a fresh start. He embraces the strict rules of the village, finds work, and begins to fall in love with Silvia, hoping to leave his past behind.
However, the tranquility of the settlement is deceptive. What initially appears to be a perfect refuge hides deeper secrets and tensions beneath its surface. As Lluc integrates into the social fabric, he discovers that the harmony of the group may come at a high personal cost, forcing him to question the true nature of their collective existence and his own safety within the hive-like structure.
As of now, 'Eixam' has not been released theatrically or digitally, so streaming availability is currently limited to festival screenings and pre-release events.
