Zero at Glasgow Film Festival
6 and 7 March, 2025
UK Premiere at Glasgow Film Festival 2025 – festival runs 26 February – 9 March, 2025
The clock is ticking when two Americans wake up with bombs strapped to them and face a twisted treasure hunt to stop them detonating 10 hours later, in this break-neck thriller from Saloum director Jean Luc Herbulot.
Two American strangers are about to join up for a life-or-death mission – but not through choice. #1 (Hus Miller) and #2 (Cam McHarg) have both just woken up in Senegal with bombs strapped to their chests and a timer set to blow up 10 hours later. Their only hope is to follow directions given to them over the phone by a mysterious voice (Willem Dafoe) that sends them on a twisted and dangerous clue-solving hunt across Dakar.
Jean Luc Herbulot (Saloum) mixes sharp scrutiny of geopolitics with white-knuckle thrills to exhilarating effect as the pair face a race against time. Zero premiered at Sitges Film Festival where it won the Orbita Award and was an official selection at Beyond Fest.
