The Zero Hour
T01296529070
Berlin during the final moments of the Second World War, three couples live through three very different versions of the same events. Across different histories lives connect, or fail to connect, in ways which echo and resonate and gradually build a picture of human stoicism in the face of the wave of history. Framed as a film that is being directed by a Chinese film director and crew, The Zero Hour fuses live action with pre-recorded film, animation, and computer generated imagery to create a world where human relations are located to be at the heart of historical events. Disturbing and romantic in turn The Zero Hour is shot through with the obsessions (sex, babies, death, WW2 and time travel) that are the hallmarks of ITD's narrative inventions to date.
