Zero Days VR is a Scatter Production. (Yasmin is currently a partner and Creative Director of Scatter).
Scatter's immersive VR documentary ZeroDays VR tells the story of the cyber weapon Stuxnet, a piece of self-replicating computer malware hatched during a clandestine mission by the U.S. and Israel to sabotage an underground Iranian nuclear facility. Told from the perspective of Stuxnet and a key NSA informant, the story places audiences inside the invisible world of computer viruses and allows them to experience the high stakes of cyber warfare. Based on the Participant Media feature-length documentary Zero Days, Zero Days VR made its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival 2017 and is set for wide release late spring 2017.
