The Zero Theorem
Nothing is Everything
Directed by Terry Gilliam
Produced by Zanuck Independent, MediaPro Pictures
A visually surreal, philosophically dense meditation on meaning and existence set in a dystopian digital landscape, where a solitary hacker's quest for truth is constantly undermined by external forces and his own isolation.
A computer hacker's goal to discover the reason for human existence continually finds his work interrupted thanks to the Management; this time, they send a teenager and lusty love interest to distract him.
