2019: AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK
(2019: DOPO LA CADUTA DI NEW YORK)

Sergio Martino

2019

Twenty years after a nuclear holocaust, New York is under the yoke of the bloodthirsty Euraks. The adventurer Parsifal infiltrates the Big Apple – where only the core and grotesque mutants are left – to find the last fertile woman on Earth.

Martino took an in-depth look at Mad Max and New York 1997 to extract their essential elements. A post-apocalyptic deviant that answers a key existential question: is it a serious offence to be a dwarf?
