趣闻
Zoo is a 2019 Canadian short drama film directed and co-written by Will Niava. The film explores themes of police brutality, racial profiling, and power dynamics through the story of three young men whose night out takes a violent turn.
Production
Niava developed the script with co-writer Anthony Galati. The story was inspired by Niava's own experiences with authority figures in Ghana and Canada. He originally intended the project to be a music video but expanded it into a narrative short after securing funding.
Niava used a "street casting" approach for the film. He discovered lead actor Amos Nzamba, who had no prior acting experience, and cast him for his "calm force." Brendan Sheehan (Slim) was spotted by Niava in a convenience store wearing an all-white outfit with pink hair, which Niava felt immediately fit the character.
The film was shot by cinematographer Simran Dewan. The visual style relies on kinetic, handheld camera work and available light—often neon signs and streetlights—to create a gritty, realistic atmosphere.
