Short description

Zed is an American vault-cracker who travels to Paris to meet up with his old friend Eric. Eric and his gang have planned to raid the only bank in the city which is open on Bastille day. After offering his services, Zed soon finds himself trapped in a situation beyond his control when heroin abuse, poor planning and a call-girl named Zoe all conspire to turn the robbery into a very bloody siege.

What's left behind the scenes

Translated from Latin, the name Zoe means 'life'.
The role of Zed was written specifically for Eric Stoltz.
Although the plot is set in Paris, almost all the scenes were filmed in California.
According to director Roger Avery, the first thing that came to his mind was the film's title – “Killing Zoe,” and he started building the plot around it.
The director's cut has a runtime of 99 minutes.
The film was shot before “Pulp Fiction” in 1993, but was only released in 1994. This was largely due to the fact that the commission demanded the removal of several excessively violent scenes.
