Epicentre

When Karina Wicks takes her father to a nursing home, she believes he'll be safe-cared for by professionals who understand his mysterious decline. But on his very first night, something strange begins. A fever. A rash. Behaviours no one can explain.

Registered Nurse Jenna is left in charge of ninety residents with little more than her fading confidence, while Georgia, an Enrolled Nurse, fights to hold herself together as the illness spreads through her own body. Sandra, hardened by years of aged care, recognises a truth no one wants to admit: whatever this is, it's moving too fast to control.

By the time the Department of Health locks the doors, it's already too late.

Now trapped inside, staff and residents must confront not only the terrifying sickness consuming them, but also their own fears, grief, and fractured hope. And when the sun finally rises, the question remains-are they witnessing freedom... or the beginning of the end?

A haunting tale of love, survival, and the fragility of human resilience, Outbreak asks: what would you cling to when the world begins to unravel from within?
