A theater group is rehearsing a version of “12 Angry Men” when suddenly they’re interrupted by an alarm. Inside the prison, this signal indicates the isolation of the modules. The theater group, consisting of six prisoners and eight visitors, will remain in quarantine due to an unknown epidemic. The lack of information and fear of contagion will test their strength and forever change their lives.

The individual versus the group, guilty or innocent?
