Johnson & Johnson Innovation are sponsoring this feature length documentary, Unseen Enemy, a film exploring the treat of Pandemics. Experts say we are "due" for a pandemic.

It is written and directed by award-winning filmmaker, Janet Tobias, shadows some of the world's top pathogen hunters and scientists as they travel the globe to track outbreaks of some of the world's greatest health threats, focusing on Ebola, Zika and Influenza.
