Zero Position

Streaming video - 2022

An experiential journey through the war in Eastern Ukraine along the ideological borderland between East and West, ZERO POSITION explores the intricate layers of hidden powers that shape the conflict before the 2022 Russian invasion. Director and journalist Louie Palu serves as a surrogate for the viewer, navigating ruined landscapes to have honest and unmediated conversations with civilians and combatants alike, illuminating the psychic impacts of the ongoing conflict on the populace. ZERO POSITION reveals the reality of desperation, institutional decay, personal trauma, and slave-like working conditions often hidden from the West by a patchwork of legacy Cold War controls related to state security and an inability for most journalists to ...report there and reach Western audiences.
