Cabin Fever: Patient Zero

1988, Kalmyk ASSR. A young doctor at a children's hospital, Kirsan Ayushev, suspects that several of his patients have HIV. Senior colleagues do not believe that this is possible, so Kirsan secretly sends samples to Moscow. When tests confirm he is right, scientist Dmitry Goncharov, a specialist in a little-known “exotic” disease in the USSR, gets involved in the case. Now the fate of dozens of children and several adults - and perhaps the entire country - depends on the actions of the capital's epidemiologist and the provincial pediatrician.
