The Zero Hour is a 2010 Venezuelan action film directed by Diego Velasco that takes place during a medical strike in Venezuela.

Production

The production mimicked the story of the film, facing troubles involving the kidnap of three crew members, including its co-producer, director Velasco being held-up at gunpoint, and the assassination of an actor shortly before recording his parts. Despite the themes, a co-writer said that they "want viewers to digest and interpret the movie’s ideas, not to put ideas in their heads".

By 2016, it was the highest-grossing Venezuelan national film, getting $3.5 million in box office takings in Venezuela.
