CAPTAIN ZERO

CAPTAIN ZERO

(filmed somewhere between Panama and Costa Rica in the caribean sea... produced, filmed, and edited, by Marc Lo Porto... thirtenth digital video project by MLProductions... original language english...)

This is an experi-mental quick flip about a living legend and super heroe... In 1996, Allan Weisbecker sold his home and his possessions and set off in search of his lifelong surfing companion, Christopher aka "captain zero", who had vanished into the wilds of Central America. "in search of Captain zero" is the book that made this former Vietnam vet and international drug smuggler's fame... this short film is simply a proof that all tales and legends originate from special human beings... if nothing else this is a historical glimpse into the real life of one of these living legends... make yourself as comfortable as you wish... see it from whatever perspective you feel... make what you want out of this...
