What happens

Zone of the Enders: 2167 Idolo is a Japanese anime original video animation, set as a prequel to the original Zone of the Enders game. It serves to explain the war between Earth and Mars, and the origin of the Orbital Frame technology. The events also lead into the TV series Z.O.E. Dolores, I. In the English dub of the movie, BAHRAM is called Bafram. It is also called this in the art gallery in the special features. However, this is most likely a translation error.
