Pandemic

Pandemic

2 x 2 hr miniseries (2006)
Synopsis

When this pandemic hits, there will be no vaccines. When this pandemic hits, it will change the face of the planet. When this pandemic hits, nowhere is safe.

Pandemic is a two part mini-series that tells a huge story through the eyes
of people we can all relate to. Pandemic is the story of a family, set in
remarkable times. The Hensby family may not be your average family, they
have high level access to the worlds of politics and medicine. They are our
access-all areas pass when the pandemic hits. The Hensbys aren’t average,
but they do share the same core values as the rest of us. They love each
other. However, the decisions they make across the course of this mini-series
won’t always be the best ones – or even the best motivated ones. Because in
a crisis, people act extremely: some are heroes, some are villains. When
public interests are pitted against personal desires, it’s not always easy to
make the right decision. And the enemy is a virus, which has no respect for
values or virtue. It will kill the good and bad alike. We cannot predict who the
victims will be – or the survivors.

Pandemic is in development for NZ on Air and TV3 (New Zealand)
