In the tradition of Magnolia, Crash and Short Cuts, Year Zero takes us into the world of strangers whose lives change forever when they finally meet. A young mother with a 10-year-old tries to make ends meet after she's fired. A blind man's seeing-eye dog is killed by a hit-and-run driver. A married couple in their 40s fight over an unplanned pregnancy. A radio producer about his father. An unethical businessman is forced to come home to Israel to take care of his aging dad.
In the next few days, this riveting, dark drama will show you each of them in life-altering moments and meetings. They'll have a chance to change, a new starting place...a Year Zero.
