The 1961 preparations for the execution of Adolf Eichmann, a principal architect of the Holocaust, are revisited in a gripping and surprising new vision from American filmmaker Jake Paltrow. Based on true accounts, June Zero is told from the unique perspectives of three distinct figures: Eichmann's Jewish Moroccan prison guard, an Israeli police investigator who also happens to be a Holocaust survivor and a precocious and clever 13-year-old Libyan immigrant.

At the crux of history and memory, June Zero takes an original and bold approach in examining the aftermath of the Holocaust.

Amy Nicholson

Washington Post

There’s a bit of vengeful comedy when the cinematographer Yaron Scharf introduces Eichmann feet first on the toilet over the sounds of Beethoven’s “Pathétique.”

San Francisco Chronicle

Though each of the plotlines in “June Zero” stir up ethical questions, its primary approach is to look at people living their lives while an extraordinary event comes to its climax. That leaves the movie open to multiple, marvelous interpretations...

Rated: 3/4

Slant Magazine

The film ponders what it means to have the power to distort and weaponize collective memory.

Loud and Clear Reviews

While it is undoubtedly narratively flawed, June Zero is a fascinating film for the questions and issues it evokes, and the way Jake Paltrow decides to deal with them on screen.

Rated: 3/5

When all is said and done, June Zero portrays a historic period in Israel in a way that's different from the history books.

June Zero is an unusual film based on an interesting idea that it doesn’t quite know how to carry out.

What an extraordinary film!!! The story unfolds against a true historical event that was a milestone in Israeli society. As a Hebrew speaker who lived at that time (although I was was pre-teen) and now an American novelist with an ear for dialogue, I found the dialogue absolutely perfect--nuanced and culturally correct for the time. So were the characters played by a great cast, each very authentic to a society still coming into itself. Growing up in Tel-Aviv, I recognized the kind of run-down factories next empty lots of thistles, the informalities in which the dynamics of the characters took place, and I recall the ongoing radio broadcasts during Eichman's trial and the emotions around me. Hurray to Jake Platrow for tackling this sensitive film in a language he doesn't speak--and coming out a winner.

A dull, boring and confusing film with subtitles often set against a light background making it difficult to read. I understand the writer's admirable intention to look at the Eichmann trial from a fresh perspective, but this effort is definitely not for most viewers! If you gave me a hundred dollars to summarize this film in three or four sentences I couldn't do it!
