Coccio 's first directorial effort was the short film '' 5:45 am '' , released in 2000 by IFC . His next project was '' Zero Day '' , a fictionalized account of two high-school teens who plan and then execute a violent attack on their peers inside their high school . The film was admittedly a study of the Columbine High School massacre , and the two characters bear much resemblance to the perpetrators Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold
