Synopsis

Following the nuclear war, eight hundred people take refuge in an underground bunker, where they await the arrival of an ark that will take them to a safer place. However, time passes without any further news about it, which raises the question of whether the promised ark actually exists. Allegorical and absurdist, this masterpiece of European science fiction deserves to share the pantheon with classics such as On the Silver Globe (1988) or Letters from a Dead Man (1986).
