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. Emma (Alison Pill) is the comic book artist who works days at an artificial love doll factory, and is hoping to undergo a secret cosmetic procedure. Her comic tells the story of Edward, a cocky film director with a debilitating secret about his anatomy. The director, Edward (Gael García Bernal), creates a film that features Michelle, an aspiring novelist who escapes to Brazil and abandons her former life as a model.
