Zoom is a Canadian-Brazilian film directed by Pedro Morelli. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year and stars Gael Garcia Bernal, Jason Priestley, Alison Pill, Tyler Labine, and Don McKellar.

ZOOM is a fast-paced, pop-art inspired, multi-plot contemporary comedy. The film consists of three seemingly separate but ultimately interlinked storylines about a comic book artist, a novelist, and a film director. Each character lives in a separate world but authors a story about the life of another. The comic book artist, Emma, works by day at an artificial love doll factory, and is hoping to undergo a secret cosmetic procedure. Emma’s comic tells the story of Edward, a cocky film director with a debilitating secret about his anatomy. The director, Edward, creates a film that features Michelle, an aspiring novelist who escapes to Brazil and abandons her former life as a model. Michelle, pens a novel that tells the tale of Emma, who works at an artificial love doll factory… And so it goes…

“ZOOM was a wild and crazy shoot in such a short period of time, having been shot in 26 days in total across Canada and Brazil,” says Morelli. “It was an adventure and a huge challenge to shoot with three different looks, in two different countries, and using a variety of experimental and challenging techniques.”

Zoom is rated 18A.
