Review by Jeremy_Urquhart

I watched this back to back with another well-known Takashi Ito short film, 1985's Grim, and I feel like Zone has a great deal more going on, is more engaging, but is also perhaps more confusing. Grim just seemed to create a certain atmosphere and then spend a whole bunch of time in it, and maybe others could pick up on what it was trying to say, but I couldn't. There's more variety to Zone and strands that could suggest more of a story, too, and I think for that reason I liked it a good deal more. There was simply more to be confused by, and while it was just as bewildering, it was an overall more visceral and notable experience for me at least.
