For Immediate Release


			    ZERO RECEIVES ITS WORLD PREMIERE


John Fucile's experimental drama "Zero" (2003) will receive its world premiere 
as part of the Victory Hall Cultural Center's Great Directors Film Series. 
"Zero" was chosen to open for a screening of Jean-Luc Godard's "Breathless" (1959) 
on Saturday, October 25, 2003, at the Victory Hall Cultural Center in Jersey City, 
New Jersey.

The improvisational drama "Zero" uses some of the finest young actors coming out 
of the Actor's Studio in NYC; it is the first "film" to be shot using the tenets 
of Fucile's Circadian Cinema theory, which explores digital video's unique 
aesthetic potential and its inherent narrative affinities.

The following weekend, Saturday, November 1, 2003, Fucile's award-winning short 
"Beat the Blue" (2002) will be featured on a bill with Michelangelo Antonioni's 
"L'Avventura" (1960).

Doors open at 7pm, screenings start at 8:30pm. Tickets are $4 at the door. 
The Victory Hall Cultural Center is located at 186 Grand Street, in Jersey City, 
NJ, five Minutes from Manhattan just south of the Grove Street Station.

John Fucile is an award-winning filmmaker, music video director, writer and media 
theorist. He has lived and worked in Toronto, Los Angeles and New York City. 
He holds a BFA in Film from Ryerson University and recently completed his Masters 
Degree in Media Studies at New School University.
