Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
Released directly on to video in the U.S., but exhibited on the festival circuit and in Europe, Plague is an adaptation of Albert Camus' novel and reteams filmmaker Luis Puenzo with actors Robert Duvall and William Hurt to tell the story of a South American city that must be cut off from the world following an outbreak of the bubonic plague. The key characters include a French tele-journalist, her cameraman and a fearless doctor.
