ABOUT \u201cTHE TUNNEL\u201d \u2013 directed by Carlo Ledesma<\/p>\n
Starring Andy Rodoreda, Bel Delia, Steve Davis and Luke Arnold, \u201cThe Tunnel\u201d is set amidst abandoned underground train tunnels beneath Sydney’s CBD. In 2008, chasing rumours of a government cover-up and urban legends surrounding the sudden back-flip, investigative journalist Natasha Warner led a crew of four into the underground labyrinth.<\/p>\n
They went down into the tunnels looking for a story \u2013 until the story found them.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Tunnel\u201d chronicles their harrowing ordeal. With unprecedented access to the recently declassified tapes the crew shot in the claustrophobic subway tunnels, as well as a series of candid interviews with the survivors, viewers come face to face with the terrifying truth.<\/p>\n
This never before seen footage takes viewers deep inside the tunnels bringing the darkness to life and capturing the raw fear that threatens to tear the crew apart, leaving each one of them fighting for their lives.<\/p>\n
