A light-hearted look at how the deadly disease of SARS has ravaged Hong Kong's economy and social life, City Of SARS is divided into 3 tales. In "Frontline", a doctor who chose his safety over his moral duty by not treating SARS patients finds himself in the role of the patient when he himself gets SARS. In "Victims", Mandy is forced to live in quarantine after her apartment building experienced a SARS outbreak. During her 10-day mandatory isolation, Mandy befriends a neighbor, not realizing that he has a surprise for her. In "Affected", rich businessman Lam (played by Eric Tsang) finds his ventures in dire straits as a result of SARS. To avoid bankruptcy, Lam decides to try to get infected with SARS and die from it so as to escape his debts. (Verleiher-Text)
