Interview with Zoom Director Pedro Morelli

pedro morelli

Zoom” follows three distinct storylines – Emma (Alison Pill) is a cartoonist with severe body image issues, Michelle (Mariana Ximenes) is a model desperate to shed superficial boundaries and demonstrate her innate sensibilities as an author, and Edward (Gael García Bernal) is a director with an unflinching vision whose confidence stems from his sexual prowess. Oh, and he happens to be fully animated. Pedro Morelli’s “Zoom” revolves around subjects ranging from abusive relationships to breast implants to penis pumps, it rarely shies away from immaturity, and it most certainly is a work of art.

Director Pedro Morelli stopped by The Hollywood Outsider to discuss his new film with us, from inception to creation. How does a film like this come together, why did he choose to incorporate animation into the live-action, and how he assembled such a diverse cast are all topics in a wide-ranging conversation you won’t want to miss.

“Zoom” is in theaters now. Find out more info at http://www.zoomthefilm.com/
