THE ZERO THEOREM
Gilliam Terry
United States, Romania, 2013, 107', Swiss Premiere
The eternal Terry Gilliam (Brazil, 12 Monkeys) is once again seeking the Meaning of Life. In an Orwellian dystopian future, Christoph Walz plays a computer genius who, recluse in an abandoned chapel, tries to decipher the purpose of existence. Cyber-sex and passionate love are brought together in a story that could have been written by Philip K. Dick on steroids. With this amazing movie, Gilliam closes his existential trilogy.
