Year Zero

About This Movie

Year Zero is a fascinating dive into the world of surfing, but not in the usual beach film sense. Shot in super 16mm, it has this grainy, textured look that really pulls you into each scene. The visuals are stunning; they capture both the beauty and rawness of locations around the globe. It's not just about the waves — it’s about the culture, the lifestyle. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the visuals and the soundtrack by Black M to breathe and resonate. This isn’t a flashy surf documentary; it’s more reflective, almost meditative, letting you soak in the atmosphere. It carries on the legacy of Globe's previous works, but it definitely carves its own niche.
