BEIJING, CHRONICLE OF A PANDEMIC

Life under quarantine

Synopsis

With the COVID-19 pandemic, China quarantined millions and massively monitored everyone else.

This film follows a French journalist living in Beijing with his wife. They were forced to spend their days in isolation with nothing else to do than shopping online, cooking, and the occasional visits to their neighbors until the government announced the end of the lockdown. Daily activities slowly resumed but with the threat of the virus still lingering in the air.

The Party has officially won the war.
