In turn, Emma controls the story of Edward (Gael García Bernal, also appearing at the Festival in Desierto), the filmmaker at the centre of the comic book she's drawing. Fortunately, Michelle (Mariana Ximenes), the aspiring novelist writing Emma's story, gives her a way out. Then she decides she wants to reverse that choice, but it's too late and too expensive to turn back. In an attempt to get herself closer to the plastic fantasy image that surrounds her, she makes a rash decision. If you find yourself confused by Zoom, here's a more detailed synopsis from TIFF:Įmma (Alison Pill) is a comic-book artist who works by day in a factory that makes sex dolls, which is messing with her head. Plus, with the sex doll factory setting, a plot point involving breast implants and all the fantasy within a fantasy storytelling, there's a heightened sense of eroticism that we usually don't see in these kind of movies. With all the stylish animation and light approach to meta storytelling, this could be enjoyable, almost like a more accessible version of a Charlie Kaufman film.
