Penned by Adam Mason and Micheal Bay – the director of various action blockbusters like The Bad Boys or Transformers series, Songbird is bound to become a big hit worldwide and Vietnam in particular.
Songbird is an American science fiction thriller film based on the COVID-19 pandemic. The movie revolves around the year of 2024, when the COVID-19 has mutated and the world is in its fourth pandemic year. By this time, every single anti-pandemic measure has failed. All lockdown and social distancing measures are strictly applied. Only 0.1 percent of the population immunized to COVID-19 are allowed to leave their homes.
However, once infected, patients will be taken from home against their will and forced into quarantine camps, known as “Q-zones”. In these camps, no treatments are available, the infected are either left to die or forcibly get better.
Nico, (starred by K.J. Apa) the handsome shipper is among the only 1 percent with immunization against coronavirus. He survived the disease back in 2020 and therefore can freely mile around the street. His girlfriend, Sarah (starred by Sofia Carson), was forced to enter Q-zone while self-isolating at home as one of her neighbors contracted the virus. Nico races across the empty streets of Los Angeles in an attempt to “kidnap” Sarah from the quarantine camp for fear of his lover would become a victim and left to die in the camp.
