For Moscow engineer Alexey (Leonid Filatov), the business trip sounded simple enough-train to a remote city, deliver the specs for a custom factory part. Once there, though, surreal situations start to occur-from a nude receptionist to being served a dessert in the likeness of his own head-and he'll learn to his dismay that getting into town would be far easier than getting out.

I saw the film City Zero briefly in the summer of 1989, just before the fall of real socialism, and it was a significant cinematic experience for me. I was familiar with the feeling of absurdity and immobility from real life as I had just graduated and had fresh experiences from working in a system-affected factory. Many scenes and dialogues fascinated me and stayed in my memory. I would say it is one of the greatest cinematic experiences I have ever had, but I have not seen the film since then and with such a long time gap, I hesitate to add it to my favorites. With a note on the significant time gap - 80% of the overall impression. The film accurately depicted the madness of the system.
