Experiencing Interruptions?

ZERO MOTIVATION - comedy of disappointments

Zero Motivation is a genre-defying web series that challenges conventional storytelling by blending raw, unfiltered humour with poignant reflections on modern womanhood and disconnection. Through a bold auteur-driven lens, fragmented narrative, and associative montage, it captures the quiet chaos of everyday life, channeling the uniquely Balkan mindset—where humour and melancholy coexist, and apathy often masks a deep search for meaning in a life beyond traditional values.
