A dark, introspective science-fiction drama that uses zombie resurrection as a lens for examining trauma, prejudice, and the difficulty of reintegration into a society that fears the formerly infected.

What happens when the undead return to life? In a world ravaged for years by a virus that turns the infected into zombie-like cannibals, a cure is at last found and the wrenching process of reintegrating the survivors back into society begins.
