The Plague A miniseries based on the novel of Albert Camus
„There is nothing more shameful than disease.“ (Albert Camus)
A city by the ocean has been infested with a terrible disease. At first there are just dead rats in every corner of the city. But then humans get infected with this mysterious fever. It starts sporadical but spreads rapidly. The city is in a state of emergency and nobody knows how long it will last. A doctor fights against the disease, driven by a seemingly absurd hope.
A project in times of corona, quarantine and closed theaters.
