INSIDE
TV Drama Pilot
After an attack of viral warfare creates a population of blood-thirsty predators who stalk their prey by the scent of human blood, those few who've survived taken refuge within the walls of Fort Monroe, a one-time Union stronghold, where their safety comes at a price - the burden of re-population. Due to limited resources, those unable to assist in re-population efforts are “remembered,” cast outside the walls to fend for themselves, facing certain death at the hands of the infected. But Fort Monroe holds even more danger for fifteen-year-old James, a girl living disguised as a boy, whose blood contains the antidote to the virus but could put an end to future generations.
