ZONE 261 is packed with fast-paced action, shoot-outs and explosions - as well as drama, romance, comic relief; strong characters and neck-braking plot twists. And above all, heart. The story starts when a submarine slams into the Swedish city Landskrona, infecting the city with a virus that turns people into monsters. To prevent the infection from spreading, the military quarantines the city. A few non-infected - ethnic Swedes and immigrants - barricade themselves and fight to survive inside the war zone. As the infected close in, old animosities between the groups escalate to a boiling point - at which they have to ask themselves who the real monsters are. At the same time, they discover a secret - a secret that changes not only the way they see the infection, but, also, the way they see themselves. Now they have to bring this secret beyond the perimeter - before the military unleashes a firestorm, turning the city into a sea of flames.—Anna G Magnusdottir
