Contagion

Plot

Contagion tells the story of the spread of a deadly disease in the course of a few days. What's different about the movie is the way the story is told. The film presents several plots, with no protagonist, that are followed over the course of several weeks showing how the outbreak and evolution of the disease affects the lives of different people with different implications. This peculiar way in telling the story is what likes and dislikes people as the different reviews show.
