Pandemics have ravaged the United States, and government only exists on the local level. After years of poor leadership, the Duke flees the city, appointing Angelo as his deputy. Determined to end spiritual corruption, Angelo enforces the strictest of morality laws. When a young man named Claudio is sentenced to be beheaded, a young nun named Isabel pleads for his life, and things get very complicated.
