Add to a movie listSubterano is a 2003 Australian science fiction film.
Esben Storm says he was inspired by the "automatic" weapons of war in Operation Desert Storm.
It's about God in a way. It's based on the lines from King Lear: `As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods. They kill us for their sport'. One of the themes is: if there is a God, what if that God is a prick; what if that God is just a bastard? For one of the characters, when he thinks that, it all makes sense, it makes sense of the world, that the world is such a slimy world of greed and selfishness and anguish and pain that the only way that it can make any sense is if the person who created the whole thing is... it's all a macabre joke. It's almost the opposite of Genesis 1: `We were made in God's image and likeness'. If you say, `We are sinful, horrible, we're in God's likeness, therefore that's what God is like'.

Il s'agit d'un film policier à l'anglo-saxonne (un whodunit) qui serait de facture classique si la victime n'était pas un indigène australien, qui a été retrouvé pendu dans la prison d'une petite ville de l'Australie profonde. Dans la cité excentrée, d'habitude calme et même endormie (le film a été tourné en hiver à Wilcannia, qui fut autrefois un port prospère sur le fleuve Darling), la tension monte entre les communautés. Un jeune city-cop est envoyé de la grande ville. Tony Bourke (joué par Jerôme Ehlers) arrive avec des directives bien précises : il a 24 heures pour boucler son enquête et rédiger son rapport, qui doit bien entendu innocenter les policiers locaux. S'il accomplit ce qu'on attend de lui en haut lieu, on passera l'éponge sur une oversight ("bavure") qu'il a commise : il a accidentellement tué un petit revendeur de drogue. Mais le jeune policier (par ailleurs porté sur la bouteille et qui a des problèmes de couple...) refuse d'avaliser la version officielle : pour lui, il ne s'agit pas d'un suicide. Il demande l'avis du médecin-légiste (joué par Richard Moir), s'affronte aux whitefellas locaux, sans pour autant être aidé dans son enquête par les blackfellas qui se méfient de lui. Mais Daphné, une belle abo (incarnée par Lydia Miller), d'ailleurs attirée par le jeune cop, se rend compte qu'il cherche à faire éclater la vérité, et lui fait rencontrer le frère de la victime. Ils étaient emprisonnés ensemble, il sait tout.

The film begins with an urban couple driving through the countryside in what looks like a cinema advertisement. The scene comes to a halt with a fatal accident. The rural Australian town of Paris arranges fatal accidents to visitors driving through. Townspeople collect items from the luggage of the deceased passengers whilst survivors are taken to the local hospital where they are given lobotomies with power tools and kept as "veggies" for medical experiments by the earnest town surgeon. The young men of the town salvage and modify the wrecked vehicles into a variety of strange-looking cars designed for destruction.
