Zero Days Trailer: “Welcome To The Next Global War”

We’ve seen many movies about these kind of things, and in today’s technology driven world, its a real threat. Magnolia Pictures has released a new Zero Day trailer, which you can watch after the jump.
I’ll be honest, I love documentaries but Alex Gibney’s films are often too talking head (i.e. interviews) heavy for my tastes. I didn’t even really enjoy his Scientology documentary Going Clear. But the trailer for Zero Days is cut almost like a narrative thriller and it makes me excited to see it. So far the film has been getting great reviews from its festival run, a bunch of pull quotes can be seen in the trailer.
Alex Gibney’s ZERO DAYS is a documentary thriller about warfare in a world without rules— the world of cyberwar. The film tells the story of Stuxnet, self-replicating computer malware (known as a “worm” for its ability to burrow from computer to computer on its own) that the U.S. and Israel unleashed to destroy a key part of an Iranian nuclear facility, and which ultimately spread beyond its intended target. It’s the most comprehensive accounting to date of how a clandestine mission hatched by two allies with clashing agendas opened forever the Pandora’s Box of cyberwarfare.
