Epidemic
Work:: Epidemic (S0720574455)
Marlon is a young man with a problem, finding it hard to get the help he needs from a system he doesn't trust. He decides to get away, hops into the nearest vehicle and drives off. When he finds there are two people sat in the back seat who share his feelings of isolation, a simple journey to see the sea turns into a popular crusade about health and happiness. As a media panic escalates, right to the heart of government, Marlon begins to wonder if he's gone too far or not far enough. Epidemic explores the way society treats illness and how the media can shift perceptions, for better and for worse.
