Screening of Takashi Yamazaki's kaiju film 'Godzilla Minus Zero', set in post-war Japan, at the Odeon Stoke.
Godzilla Minus Zero is playing at Odeon Stoke starting Thursday 5 November. It's directed by Takashi Yamazaki and stars Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Kuranosuke Sasaki and Jun Kunimura.
The story is set in 1949, and it opens on a Japan already war-torn by Godzilla. The Shikishima family is facing a fresh catastrophe two years after surviving their previous ordeal with the legendary monster. The country has been through an agonising struggle to recover and finally reclaim daily life, and just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes and crushes hope in an instant. The film's tagline sums it up: 'War reduced Japan to zero, and Godzilla plunged it into minus. There is no third time. Everything ends here.'
