More About ZERO:
Zero is the story of Alice who lives with her paranoid prepper father, John. All the preparation in the world can’t save her father from the inevitable cardiac arrest that follows when an E.M.P. disables his pacemaker.
Alice is left alone in a barricaded farmhouse in the English countryside. But the ghost of her
father lives on through the strict rules he gave her: trust no-one; never let anyone in the house; and never, ever, leave.
All Alice has to do is follow these rules to the letter and she will survive but her resolve will
be pushed to its limits when a wounded man knocks on her door...

The way I understood it, the EMP had happened several months or even years ago, and ever since, father & daughter have been living in the barricaded house while the father's heart got worse and worse and couldn't be balanced out by the pacemaker anymore because this device had stopped working long ago when the EMP went off. So technically, the pacemaker wasn't his death sentence. If he hadn't had it in the first place, he would hace died a lot earlier.

🔵 If he knew the EMP was coming why didn't he just wrap his upper body in aluminum foil?, or gotten inside of a metal tank of some sort to act as a faraday cage and protect his pacemaker until the EMP had passed. I wish we had been given a clearer timeline from the point that the father died until she finally ventured out of the house.

In real life anyway super duper EMP requires either a big nuke size explosion either terrestrial or solar. The latter is not relevent here. Even pseudo realiatic Sci-Fi EMPs would need to be very numerous as well as huge. Additional thoughts: My experience with disasters gives me the opinion that a global weapons-based cataclysm could indeed temporarily produce iron-age conditions around the earth. Pockets of survivors would have serious challenges. The scenario in this short is pretty darn good compared to most imo.

Excellent excellent film. That actor is just amazing. She's brilliant. Some people in the comments are saying they'd "like to see more", or "like to see the full story". Personally, I think the film is perfect as it is. Films and literature are best when they're not didactic. And the ambiguities in this short gem are what help make it arty. And more universal. How many times have I felt like that little girl, lost, alone, terrified; yet determined to move on, despite the uncertain future. That's part of the human condition. Any more details than were provided would have "cheapened" the message, in my humble opinion.

So the warning on the screen was that there will be an EMP to disable the invading giant robots and the father was preparing her for human nature pillaging and horrors that scared humans commit when not restrained by society? If she had fed the stranger she would've lost WAY more than a few cans of food in all likelihood. If he was desperate for food, how would you ever think he would distance himself from a treasure trove of it and move on. He would likely have told himself it was ok to assert his dominance, He HAD to for his survival.... and once you cross those kinds of lines you're left fearing whatever other lines conscience can allow to be blurred for survivals sake. She did well to obey her fathers rules. He knew she'd have to go out eventually to plant food etc. but she'd be larger and more able to stand a fighting chance against whatever human chaos existed out there. .... that's the thing with bomb shelters.... you'd have to be able to listen to the screams of neighbors who didn't prepare.... who could live with that? ☹️ Remember the old Twilight zones? "Friends and neighbors" can get very ugly when survival is at stake. ☹️

This film starts simply, with just enough detail to make the premise clear, and to introduce us to Alice, our protagonist. The moment of the EMP strike had emotional power to it, and acted to clearly set the story moving forward. As Alice goes through her solitary life, we see the monotony of her existence, though it felt a bit superficial in its portrayal; I guess one can only do so much in less than 14 minutes. The intruder's appearance gives Alice--and us--more insights into the outside world, and sparks what is the turning point in the film--Alice's true destiny. And it is this destiny which saves what would otherwise be a no more than a workman-like film with a woefully under-utilized actor. If this film is the opening scene for a feature film starring Ms Ramsey and set in this universe, I'm all in. Best of luck in getting it made, Keith and David!

Very Gripping. Burial inside the house, makes sense. Obedience payed off, but, her decision to leave was hers to make. Disciplined, authentic acting. Director Should have given us an idea of how many days, she was in the house for though. Clearly very long. The Ending, unexpected!

There was a clue in the beginning when her father told her that the food would last 5 years before she needed to grow her own. Judging from the marks on the wall, the grass growing on the robot pieces, and the slight aging, it has probably been a year or two.

She is such a good actress and right away I knew she was the actress who played Lady Mormont on Game of Thrones. She has such a broad range that the only thing that could stop her from continuing in acting would be if she chose to stop acting or they wanted a typical dumb blonde for a part. Otherwise she couldn't be pigeonholed. She is a prodigy and I forget she is acting and playing a part. She is whatever person she is portraying. I hope only good things come her way.

Maybe old dad was a lot more clever than we give him credit for. The remoteness of the location was the key to avoiding threats from the outside, but he wisely knew that the biggest threat was for the girl to prematurely go out and git herself kilt 😨. The boarding up was actually to keep her inside, along with a healthy fear of what is out there. Time would change things in her favor if she did as daddy instructed...and that's mostly what she did. It has been too long since movies gave a good dad the credit he deserves. This one could have made that credit a bit more clear, but it's a good step in the right direction.

Sci-fi short - comments by Jan Beware of spoilers! ZERO by The Brothers Lynch (Keith & David) Plot: Girl in post-apocalyptic shelter finds her want for life. It is not so much original topic, but the storytelling is enjoyable and full of emotions. Although plot itself is not huge, it is told nicely and there is a space for character arc development. The end is open for future - we do not know what it will be for her, but the story of the movie is told fully. Negatives: 1) just a little thing: those planks did not look like something could defence her Positives: 1) storytelling; 2) not much dialogue, but perfectly working; 3) general setting - so disturbing post-apocalypse and yet so calm Personal note: Oh, you Trifids-fighters, still eating those cans of paint over the dead body of the person you could take care? Summary: I enjoyed this movie. Definitely in better half of post-apo theme.

Another really unique, well done creative short film. I absolutely LOVE the brilliant cinematography at the end when, at first you can't initially make out how the objects she walks by appear separate unrelated to one another until the camera shot does the beautiful 360 spin and then pans back to slowly reveal unified entirety of the object laying in the field. (no spoilers). It's reminiscent of the final seen of the original Planet of the Apes when the Statue of Liberty is slowly revealed and thus the realization that they were on Earth the whole time. (OK, that was a spoiler but God help anyone on the sight having not seen it. The same can be said of the uber classic scene in Gone With The Wind (granted not sci-fi) when the camera starts off with a close up of a wounded soldier and then gradually pulls back and back and back revealing the thousands of dead and dying soldiers allowing the viewer to vividly see and thus enable the viewer the full extent of the carnage of war. Thoughts? Any guesses as to why they chose the title "Zero"? I'm stumped on that.
