Man Unravelling

In 2455, the human race has swelled to nearly 15 billion; despite this overpopulation, conditions are favorable with low crime rates, global security in a world-wide government, and medical machines that cure every disease and injury. But when the presence of a blight threatens the lives of over a billion citizens, the government decides to reduce the population naturally instead of choosing which regions should starve. They dismantle the medical infrastructure and declare practicing medicine illegal.

Man Unravelling follows six characters around the globe as they face a reality not only bereft of medical treatment, but the mental security that accompanies it. Individuals hailing from Buenos Aires, Buffalo, Tokyo, Cape Town, Warsaw, and Sydney experience consequences ranging from societal change and rebellion to personal loss and even their own mortality, all culminating in a single question: when we are faced with extreme adversity, do we rise above or succumb to the tragedy?
