UK Premiere
When outlaw Parca takes a bleeding and pregnant girl to the local public hospital he finds it closed due to a strike. His solution is to rally his gun toting gang and head for another, this time private, hospital that services the idle rich. Once there he takes both the doctors and their wealthy patients hostage as a tense political siege ensues.
Starring the unlikely named Zapata 666 as Parca, this unrelentingly fast paced action thriller from Venezuela is overflowing with exuberant energy. La Hora cero manages to mix just the right amount of action and politics to create a thoroughly satisfying cinematic experience.
