According to the director, the title symbolizes "the atmosphere of a corridor between yesterday and today, containing many doors".[1]

Cast

Reception

David Stratton of Variety wrote: "The camera lingers on various characters, including a youth played by the director, who just sit or stand about, looking miserable. Nothing much happens. ... Whatever Bartas was trying to communicate in The Corridor is difficult to determine, and maybe only the initiated can work it out."[1]
