Club Zero

Österreich Deutschland Frankreich Großbritannien Katar 2022/2023 Spielfilm

At an elitist school for adolescents from families with plenty of money and little time, a new teacher is causing a stir: the charismatic Miss Novak not only serves as an educator but also as a nutritionist. Her teachings of moderation, fasting, and radical consumption abstinence are well-received but soon take on cult-like characteristics. In particular, five students fully commit themselves to Novak's ideals, gradually distancing themselves from friends and parents. Subtly manipulated by the teacher, nobody can reach the clique anymore. The ultimate goal of the "Club Zero": to continuously reduce food intake and eventually stop altogether.
