Synopsis

As the David Attenborough narration tells us, it takes four months for the earth to consume the dried flesh of a swan. With A ZED & TWO NOUGHTS, director Peter Greenaway shows it takes only a day for a human life to reach putrefaction. Featuring the geometrically composed symmetry of cinematographer Sacha Vierny of HIROSHIMA MON AMOUR and music by Michael Nyman, A ZED & TWO NOUGHTS is a perverse psychotronic head-scratcher of zebra carcass-sized proportions.
