The film
Zerograd (Russian: Город Зеро, romanized: Gorod Zero), also translated as City Zero, Zero City or Zero Town, is a 1989 Russian mystery film directed by Karen Shakhnazarov, described as an absurdist comedy by Mosfilm. A Moscow engineer Alexey Varakin visits a factory in a small town on a business trip, where his bizarre adventures begin. At the factory he sees a naked secretary, but nobody seems to pay attention to this; later we encounters a prosecutor who wants to commit a crime, and other strange characters. In addition it turns out that he cannot leave the town.
