This is interesting for a couple of reasons.
First, it appears to demonstrate quite clearly now that there is considerable momentum behind calls to re-investigate 9/11. More and more people are expressing their dismay at the original investigation by the 9/11 Commission - hardly surprising when you consider the Chairman and Vice-Chariman both agreed the Commission were lied to by the US government and its agencies.
The other interesting aspect is the fact that the rights to distribute the film have been acquired by MercuryMedia International, which is headed by former Walt Disney executive, Tim Sparke. I'm not sure how I feel about someone with ties to toe-the-line corporate media organisations such as WD being responsible for the distribution strategy of a potentially explosive 9/11-based documentary.
Still, more to follow, that's for sure.

MercuryMedia Acquires Rights To ‘Zero: An Investigation Into 9/11’
Embargoed Until 9th February 2008
London, UK – 9th February 2008 – Mercury Media today announced that they have acquired all world-wide distribution rights (ex Middle East, Belgium and Italy) for the HD-cam feature documentary ‘Zero: An Investigation Into 9/11’ from Italian production company Telemaco.
The film, dubbed ‘The Sensation At The Rome Film Festival’ has been re-edited with an English voice-over for Berlin 2008 where it will be screened as part of the market place offerings. In addition the European Parliament will screen the film on February 26th.
Zero is the first million+ Euro investigation into 9/11 and features interviews with Nobel prize winner Dario Fo, Gore Vidal, Moni Avadia and Giulietto Chiesa MEP, who is also a member of the Security and Defence Commission of the European Parliament.
The film is directed by, Franco Farcassi and Francesco Trento. Trento commented…..’This film was funded through direct contributions from the public. I believe what we have achieved justifies the many thousands of individual contributions we have received. I am very proud to have created a film which will initiate a reasoned debate into this, the most monstrous terrorist attack in history’.
Commenting for Mercury, Tim Sparke MD said: ‘Zero is arguably the most important film made this year. It proves conclusively that the official story of 9/11 is false and that whatever happened on that fateful day must be re-examined by an independent authority. It is our hope that the European Parliament will take up this challenge’.
He added: ‘We are confident that Zero will be screened world-wide theatrically, it is a beautifully crafted film, of incredible significance. We urge buyers to come to the Berlin Screening on 13th February at Parliament to see why we make these claims’.
