Zenith at the Guild Cinema

Ends Sunday, Jan 29, 9:15 only!

Dir. Vladan Nikolic – 2010 – 93m.  A LOST OBJECT FROM THE FUTURE – THE FILM THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE – THE UNDERGROUND CULT MOVIE SENSATION

ZENITH is a retro-futuristic steam-punk thriller, about two men in two time periods, whose search for the same grand conspiracy leads them to question their own humanity.

Starting from a fictional recreation of Stanley Milgram’s Obedience to Authority experiment, Zenith plunges into exploring multifaceted dimensions of the human experience. The film follows two parallel stories – of father and son – now, and 40 years into the future. Searching for the same elusive conspiracy, both father and son find no answers; instead, their journeys unravel their lives and force them to look deep and hard at themselves and their surroundings. In the end, they are both confronted with the same Faustian bargain – but each one chooses a very different path.

“a brooding science-fiction trip…Nikolic’s lust for paranoid desperation is powerful, and his way with actors is stunningly graceful.” – Michael Atkinson, Village Voice

“Imaginative sci-fi thriller…conceptual imagination…a talent to watch!” – Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
