Before the World Set on Fire

At Eastling College a strange illness breaks out, rumor has it caused by a mysterious chemical leak. Subject to remote learning, a group of graduate students led by philosophy Professor Anya Davis, begin challenging each other in an online class. The session comes to a peak when the prodigal Wilder’s mind is overtaken by a controversial theory, leading to a devastating outcome. As the university begins to question who was really responsible for Wilder’s behavior and the leak becomes linked to him and perhaps a corroboration of bio-terrorism, Anya becomes suspect and a witch-hunt begins.
