A military group of men is locked up in a bunker in an unknown future. All those soldiers are waiting for an eventual enemy. But the discovery of a certain project will cause several catastrophies and will make those men kill each other... Written by Chris Morin
I was hopeful when I saw this short film before a screening of "Delicatessen," but frankly it left me cold and confused. There are some creative costumes, sets and sounds, but in the end "The Bunker" is little more than an experiment in bleakness, like Lynch's "Eraserhead." There's very little dialogue, color, or narrative to follow, but fans of Jeunet and Caro will recognize some of the retro-futuristic devices and effects -- many are revisited in the far more polished and fun "City of Lost Children."
