Day Zero
Day Zero is a 2007 American film directed by Bryan Gunnar Cole and written by Robert Malkani. Set in the near future when global terrorism has forced the military to reinstate the draft, three young men, who have just received their induction notices and havedays to report for duty, must battle their political views before making a decision that will change their lives forever.
In the future America, the military draft has been reinstated to fight the war on terror. The countrys conflicting attitudes toward war are examined through the eyes of Aaron Wood, George Klein, and Dixon Bernthal. The three friends have been given induction notices and havedays to report for duty. Feeling unprepared but convinced that he must serve, novelist Aaron embarks on a quest to prepare for the life of a soldier enlisting the help of a collapsing Bowflex machine and a disengaged therapist Sheedy.Corporate attorney George wishes to stay with his wife Goodwin, a recent cancer survivor, rather than fight in a war that he believes is wrong. He spends much of hisdays researching ways he can dodge the draft, but avoiding service does not prove easy. Cab driver Dixon is the most fearless and free of doubt, but he falls in love with a sociology student Moss, and suddenly issues that always seemed blackandwhite to him are not so simple. As reporting day, or day zero, draws nearer, the three friends fight, fallout, come together and comfort each other as each in his own way discovers what it means to serve with honor. ........
