Plot Spoiler

The movie begins with Ángela being rescued from the building where the infection started in the previous films. She is brought aboard a naval vessel to be quarantined and observed by medical personnel. However, she soon realizes that not everyone aboard the ship is as safe as they seem. Unbeknownst to Ángela, the virus has somehow found its way onto the ship, and the infection begins to spread once again.

As the outbreak resurges, Ángela, along with a small group of survivors, must navigate through the ship while trying to fend off the infected crew members. The situation escalates when it’s revealed that a government scientist, in an attempt to experiment with the virus, has intentionally infected the crew to study its effects. As the ship’s systems begin to fail, the survivors struggle to escape, but Ángela is faced with the responsibility of stopping the infection from reaching the outside world.

In the final act, Ángela kills the scientist, preventing further spread of the virus. However, just as she believes she’s found a moment of peace, the film ends with a cliffhanger: a brief glimpse of the infected virus spreading beyond the ship, leaving the fate of humanity uncertain.
