Every morning he wakes up with no memory of the day before - just a note telling him how to act, how to love, how to be. For her. For Eva. As he cycles through jealousy, distance, tenderness, and humor, he convinces himself it's all in the name of saving their fragile relationship. But beneath the routine and the roles, something darker is brewing. Day Zero is an intimate, tense exploration of love, trust, and the dangerous lengths we'll go to hold onto someone - even when it means losing ourselves.

Because sometimes love isn't salvation... It's possession.
