Nuclear war has decimated the planet and left humans sterile. In the aftermath, two factions emerged: the evil Euraks and the rebel Federation. The Federation recruit a mercenary, Parsifal, to infiltrate New York City and retrieve Melissa, the last fertile woman on Earth. With the clock ticking, the fate of the human race rests in Parsifal’s hands.
The plot of 2019: AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK (1983) might sound a lot like Alfonso Cuaŕon’s CHILDREN OF MEN (2006), both even including scenes backdropped against Picasso’s ‘Guernica’. However, don’t let the similarities fool you. 2019: AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK is a high-octane gorefest featuring Nazis, ape mutants, and armoured-car dune races. Directed by legendary Italian B-movie director Sergio Martino.
