Zero is a woman’s story. Told from a woman’s perspective, the narrative shifts instantly. What decisions does a woman make? What makes up a woman’s heart, in the past, present, and future?
Zero is also document of New York City in 2020, shot on location in Manhattan and Brooklyn during the height of the pandemic’s lockdown.
