UndergroundUnderground

In the midst of war, Marko and Blacky - two opportunistic buddies sharing a spirited lust for women, booze and madcap brawling - attain riches and heroic praise dealing arms to the war's resistance fighters. When things get too hot, they move into an intricate cellar packed with refugees whom Marko encourages to manufacture the contraband. With Blacky convinced he should remain hidden in the cellar until the war ends, Marko conspires to leave him there as he grows richer from the toils of the people living underground. Winner of the Palme d'Or at the **Cannes Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Foreign Film at the **César Awards** and the **Film Independent Spirit Awards**. *"A triumph of mise en scene mated to a comic vision that keeps topping its own hyperbole." - Jonathan Rosenbaum, **Chicago Reader***
