Trailer

First-time director Dominique Rocher may have given birth to the first minimalist art-house zombie movie with this adaptation of Pit Agarmen’s novel. Franco-Norwegian musician Sam, played by the melancholy Anders Danielsen Lie (Oslo, August 31st), stops by his ex’s pad to pick up his stuff. But a wild party is raging, so he locks himself in the back room and promptly gets drunk as a skunk… only to awaken the next morning and find that everyone in Paris is dead and zombies are roaming the streets below. Petrified, Sam must figure out how to survive. An in-depth study of loneliness at its most profound, this finely-crafted genre film features the gifted Golshifteh Farahani  and the ever-brilliant Denis Lavant (HOLY MOTORS), who was literally born to play the most fascinating zombie ever to walk the earth.
