Summary
It is inevitable that disaster will someday strike America on an unprecedented level. This docudrama imagines the story of a family in a future Los
Angeles reeling from a global flu pandemic. With billions dead around the world
and America left in chaos and panic, the Johnson family tries to escape the city
as the infrastructure collapses and society deteriorates. Looting, violence, gang
activity, lack of food and water: the threats to the Johnsons' survival are
myriad. Interspersed with the dramatic re-enactments are expert interviews that
provide insight into historical examples of societal breakdown.
