In Zero, a Shiba Inu dog wakes up to an alarm clock and finds itself alone aboard an abandoned yet luxurious private plane flying across a desert landscape. While the dog’s movements are calm, and the beige leather seats sumptuous, there is an air of impending doom as one might wonder if the dog is capable of surviving alone aboard the aircraft. As the plane glides gradually past shimmering high rises, the dog gazes longingly out the window—perhaps aware that it might be displaced, flying steadily, endlessly, as if it were the sole survivor after the end of the world.
