Synopsis

A pandemic is sweeping across the nation, killing most of the adults. Ellie, Annie, and Devon have come to an abandoned theatre to try and find food supplies. Instead, they stumble across a rare bottle of hand sanitizer that mysteriously looks and sounds like a music box. However, there is a sinister danger lurking in the theatre.

“Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” – Berthold Auerbach
