action

The film consists of three video diaries that document the outbreak and the consequences of a zombie virus.

In the first chapter, "The Outbreak", a film crew travels to the rural area of ​​London to document the outbreak of a zombie virus.

The second chapter "The Scavengers" takes place a month later. Two men (one of them American) and a woman, armed with a rifle, travel around in a small car in search of food.

In the last chapter "The Survivors" a larger group of survivors holed up in a farm to protect themselves from the approaching zombies. In the final scene, the film crew from the first chapter is brought into play again. The survivors, who have to protect themselves from other threats in addition to the infected, are all but one, killed in the end by two non-infected psychopaths.
