Festival Rating
Radu ZERO delivers an enigma with open meanings, elliptical, exploring the limits of the direct perception of images, venturing on the field of memory, using “déjà-vu” as a filmic structure.
A movie made of movies, to watch and hear as a spiritual inquiry in the center of a forgotten journey.

Director's Biography
Radu ZERO
Active on the Swiss and European art scene for more than fifteen years.
Creator of scenic projects and installations joining video, visual arts and music. His work as a video artist is mainly reflected in hybrid fictions. Deliberate oscillations on the very theme of form and on the perception of the image, on the mise en abyme of established codes of perception, his films are as much cinematographic objects as constantly mutating experimental creations.
Radu ZERO also works as a videographer for various contemporary theater and dance companies.
Having won a dozen international film awards, over the last five years he has collaborated with Natacha Atlas, Matei Visniec, Kid Chocolat, FAUVE, La Cie De nuit comme de jour, Robert Garieri aka “Roccobelly”, Asia Argento, and has presented four experimental fictional feature films in targeted and demanding arthouse cinema halls and festivals, like the Green Hours and Clubul Taranului / Romania, Arsenic, Grütli, Zinema, Sputnik, SAS, City Club / Switzerland.
In summer 2016 and 2017, he took part in the RAC, a residence for contemporary art in Brasov / Transylvania.
