Mother Bunker!

by David Monaghan

For the last two years, Tina, a former dancer, and her son Timm, a fool, have lived inside a cramped bunker. Why's that? Well, the world outside has become toxic consumed by a green mist that degenerates people into foetuses.

When Millie, a nostalgia hawker from the outside world, enters their lives, the instability of their routine is exposed, and chaos ensues. But all is not what it seems, just what are Tina and Timm hiding?

Mother Bunker! is a post-apocalyptic dark comedy about nostalgia, performance, co-dependency, and the end of days.
