TV Series. Drama The series follows an epidemic that breaks out in Atlanta, leaving the large city quarantined and those stuck on the inside fighting for their lives. The drama tells the story of loved ones torn apart, and how the society that grows inside the cordon reveals both the devolution of humanity and the birth of unlikely heroes. Written by Patricia Peña Hdez.

	Media	Author	Review
		David Wiegand SFGATE	"It’s a very well-made, well-written and well-acted thriller that will keep you guessing about everything except for the quality of the series."
		Mark Perigard Boston Herald	"It’s a series without interesting characters, story or a modicum of tension."
		Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"Its first episode raises some chills (...) but as the series progresses it increasingly seems assembled from characters and plot threads that we’ve seen repeatedly."
		Brian Lowry Variety	"A thoroughly uninspired drama about a pandemic."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Occasionally terrifying, mostly formulaic."
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"Although 'Containment' may be convincing, it isn’t particularly compelling, because the characters seldom register as anything other than pawns (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
