Warren Ellis shared a link to a brief apocalyptic film on YouTube. “Silent City” by Ruairi Robinson. Robinson was nominated for an academy award in 2001 for a 3 minute short animated film called “Fifty Percent Gray” (see it on YouTube) about a soldier who wakes up dead. While that nomination didn’t substantially help his career, “The Silent City” apparently did, netting him an agent.

“The Silent City” is a seven minute seven second film of a violent post-apocalyptic world that’s anything but silent. The embedded YouTube video follows. It features Don Wycherley, a few seconds of Cillian Murphy, and Garvan McGrath.
