Returning from a scavenging expedition, Axel and Jonathan bring home a muzzled zombie, dubbed Pythagoras, who becomes in turn, a punching bag, an art piece, and a catalyst for the mental and emotional breakdown of the bunker's once tight-knit population.
Simultaneously touching and disturbing, The Desert takes everything we know about the zombie genre and throws it out of the window, presenting instead a thought-provoking character study on the frailty of imposed intimacy.
