A dangerous virus is spreading in and around Montreal. It does not discriminate and attacks all groups in society: young, old, poor, rich. No one is safe. How long will it take Anne-Marie Leclerc (Julie LeBreton), an infectious disease specialist and director of the Laboratoire d’urgence sanitaire, to realize that this highly contagious disease exists? Will it be too late to prevent a deadly epidemic from spreading to the entire population? In Épidémie, the protagonists face fears and dilemmas that are truly upon us. We experience the epidemic through the eyes, ears, and hearts of characters who are just like us.
