The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I suppose that my summary says it all I had medium expectations for this film. I liked the concept but was worried that it would be played for the wrong laughs and bathroom humor. Instead I, and you will be as well, was rewarded with a sensitive and witty look at how we deal with our own identities.Luke has to work through the age old question of "who he is" though he is working in some unfamiliar territory.Pay attention to the dance of characters and you will not be too startled in the end. Though the premise is far fetched the director has managed to pull it off delicately and satisfactorily.I loved all the leads, but found the character named Jeanine to be the wisest of the bunch.

Without dropping any spoilers - though if you're reading this you probably already know too much ;) - I'd sum the point of this movie as "before you can find your soul-mate, you have to truly know your own soul". It playfully & non judgmentally deals with gender roles, and desires. It's cute, at times contrived - but I'll cut them lots of slack, because this is an unusual plot and moving the story along sometimes takes some real contortions. The cast is all wonderful & likable - even those who could be deemed 'villains' have their own understandable logic. In a world of teenage comedies about finding sex, recreational substances, or adventures involving large amounts of toilet humour, this is anything but a mainstream movie. Still, for those who took the effort to seek it out, it's a worthwhile, and heartwarming watch. Does using the term "heartwarming" constitute a spoiler? ;)See it at least twice. Once with fresh eyes, and again with wisdom.

I loved this movie. You should definitely see this whether you're a male or female. It conquers both gender barriers.The beginning as well as the end is intelligent. The storyline is precise with the meaning of the word that we all wonder about. However, the word isn't correctly used. Rather, there should be a noun defining the exact meaning should be, instead of an adjective. All in all, I believe this movie had great acting. And when I mean great acting, I think of the A & B list of actors (which has a lot to say!) I read a previous comment summarizing "I wish this film can circulate through the public, it deserves the best!" I completely agree with this idea. This film should have been in the mainstream. Why wasn't it?

I was walking down the street when I... anyways I met the director and got tickets to see the world premiere of it at Rebel Fest in Toronto. It should have been in the TIFF, but it didn't meet the deadline.The movie is "so creative" as my friend put it and I haven't seen anything like that for a long time. Both of us are taking film courses in college.The premise is the main character has a disease that changes his gender in minutes when he gets turned on. My only complaint is that it's hd quality and not widescreen.I think most people would enjoy this film's quirky subject, and comedic dialogues. Unlike most films, Zerophila isn't predictable and not conservative. Also there's also some sort of frog motif going on in there.
