Day Zero

Set in a near future where a deadly virus has decimated the population, a young woman, Amy, is desperately trying to reach her estranged father. The journey is fraught with danger as she navigates through a world overrun by infected and desperate survivors, all while confronting her own past and the true nature of the outbreak.
