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?

This film is an affirmative coming of age film for a teenage man with a condition that makes him change sex when he has sex.
The plot is very original and innovative. I have never thought about anything remotely like that before! On the surface, it is a film about an imaginary genetic condition called zerophilia. It explores self discovery and self acceptance. Luke finds out that he in fact like guys, tries to change this but fails. Then he accepted himself as who he is, and starts a relationship with Max. This very much mirrors the sexual discovery of adolescents.
This film brings a positive message about self acceptance, as highlighted in the symbolic scene of Luke given a light blue top for ladies. It's OK whoever you choose to be.
The positive message is portrayed in an entertaining way. I hope this message can reach a wider audience!

I saw ZEROPHILIA on Showtime last night; and, I found it to be is a very unusual and unique comedy, to say the least.
First off, the cast is wonderful and each character is likable. That's only because the acting was so exceptional. Taylor Handley as Luke; and, Marieh Delfino as Luka really pulled this one off. They look enough alike; but, it's the attitude, mannerisms and gestures that really work.
Also, Rebecca Mozo as Michelle and Kyle Schmid as Max are excellent foils to our hero/heroine. In addition, I was absolutely thrilled to see Gina Bellmen (of Coupling fame) in her role as Dr. Sydney – WOW, what a performance!
ZEROPHILIA is easy-going and non-judgmentally in its presentation of gender roles – I mean just look at the title sequence, "Microangelo Entertainment" and "Scambled Egg Productions" – these guys aren't taking themselves too seriously.

Writer/Director Martin Curland did a great job. I loved it.
I was invited to a screening of Zerophilia at Westwood Crest Theatre November 16, 05 in the LA area and it was great to see the theatre packed. It's a romantic comedy with a twist. The audience loved it. I'm not one to laugh easily at films, but, this one had me laughing out loud a lot.
I hope these guys get distribution.
The theatre was packed and everyone was clapping and smiling at the end. You could tell by the faces that everyone loved it.
I went in without knowing a thing about the premise line and never looked at the trailer. It took me by complete surprise. A cute movie that really does a great job of highlighting love for a person no matter what the gender is. It's a great comic fantasy. With a twist I'd never thought of.
You are what you are! Good job...;)

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.
