This movie by Lukas Valenta Rinner shows a group that gets a military training by the manual. The threat that they feel within this Science Fiction like movie, is unclear. The only thing is that they put their best feet forward for training in this apocalyptic atmosphere.
The original title ‘Parabellum’ means ‘gun’ and at the same time has a meaning of ‘prepare for war’. This black comedy movie lines up the characters solemnity and seriousness up front. What could have happened to the world? The movie’s ending scene offers a vision of their dignity becoming reality. It is a fable of the gloomy and funny reality of our lives. (LEE Sang-yong)
