一場鼠疫，摧毀了一座本來繁榮穩定的現代城市。疫症過後，五名證人出席聽證會，參與獨立調查，嘗試梳理疫症的前因後果。
城市中有不同聲音，Dr Rex希望以中立、客觀的角度為事件作證。然而在一件嚴重的社會事件中，所有人的選擇都有自己的原因。其餘四名證人對「中立」有不同看法。當「中立」失去公信力，聽證會還是否足夠作為一個有效力的行動？

The Plague (Cantonese Version)
Presented by: Hong Kong Arts Festival
Produced by: Hong Kong Arts Festival
Platform: HERMES Live
Synopsis: A plague has left a once prosperous and stable modern city devastated. As the pandemic recedes, five witnesses take part in an independent inquiry to comb through the causes and consequences of the catastrophe.
There are diverse opinions in the city. Dr Rex wishes to testify to the event from a neutral and objective perspective. In a severe social event, however, everyone makes a choice for their own reasons. The four other witnesses have different views on neutrality. When neutrality loses its credibility, does a hearing still suffice as an effective action?
