No. 6

Among the many variations on the theme of "what will happen after the end of the world," very little discussion about how it will shift the consciousness of people "after the accident." Usually the emphasis is on technology, on the confrontation with those less fortunate than locked in Eden elite, the actual survival in an unfriendly, filthy world ... Sometimes there are attempts to uncover the relationship between the "new people" or to show the structure of the new society. The game of utopia and dystopia ... But all this is boring, all this has ceased to be interesting. So things like "Zone No. 6" stand out is its originality.

Here at the center put the people - or rather, their inner world. And very well illustrates how change, as a broken heart, when the usual order is crumbling ... Compositionally, we have the confrontation of two systems: the hateful wild liberties with the city walls, where they live whores and street thieves, pimps and traffickers, where the dogs rather than lease space heaters, and the danger can lie in wait at every turn - and the city, with cruel orders, where dissidents eliminate (or placing in a correctional facility, or simply killing), as good citizens do not even know what's really going on.

Zion ... The boys, prodigy, the future genius, which is absolutely not interested in the value of the "elite" new world. He goes to a better school, a school for the elite, but it does not care. He may at any time "fall out of the reality" on the under the pressure of the wind rustling the trees in the rain or run out into the street and scream loudly, not caring that he could hear. It is absolutely natural, it does not suffer from doubts or regrets, he accepts the world as it really is. However, he still pure and innocent - well, an angel, naturally. But ... it is in the beginning. Then Zion changing and looking at it hurts. Hurt by the fact that the world is so bad. Absorbing all the evil in the world, writhing in pain and suffering, going crazy on that creating injustice around the ... He was at the end remains the same Zion, but it is visible, in fact, his soul is crippled, he was no angel, but not a demon, and not man. He - a symbol. Symbol of corruption and irregularities of the world ... Able to deform, even as a light heart.

Nezumi different. He was wild, like a young one. This savagery is always sitting in it and can "get out" at any time, and it is completely controlled by the man he hates the zone 6. Raging Avenger, he, like Hidden predator waits patiently for the case to eliminate the zone number 6 once and for all. And when such a case tucks, he laughs gleefully, anticipating the death of the inhabitants of the city. It is a cruel and merciless, it seems there is almost nothing human, but ... Zion was able to change it. Yes, it sounds corny, but the heart of even the most callous of the genus homo sapiens can melt an ordinary human warmth. What matters is that this attitude was sincere ...
The third angle of a triangle kind of relationship - Safa. Also genius, prodigy, too, too elite, living in six areas. It is up to the limit of rationalization, however, communication with Sion and the effect on her. Over time, it is less absurd like a hybrid of street urchins and electronic encyclopedias, over time it becomes more romantic, and Zion ... She loves him - and that says it all. Roughly speaking - he was from childhood to her very close friend, the best and only friend, and then a friendly feeling naturally grew into something more.

But ... Too little. Too few shows too little discussed about the other characters - a journalist, mother of Zion,  ... Fragments, fragments of feelings, emotions, memories, fantasies, illusions ... Mutilated mutilated souls against the world. And Zion, the Messiah, who wants to do everything right, but ... he can't.
