Yes, that's what I see here as well.  And that is the root cause of
the problem, AFAIU.

I think utf-8 is the right encoding of the file names, but the unzip
program and/or its interaction with Emacs doesn't work well.  Does
your unzip program support UTF-8 encoded file names?  What happens if
you extract the files from the archive using that unzip program?
