There's already several accountings of the plot here, so I won't add one. I like off-beat and quirky media and this film provides that. It does it with a nice, light and fun flair in my opinion. It's listed as a drama, but I'd put it into the dark comedy category. This film is worth watching. It's anything but pornographic and I don't think the writer/director ever intended it to be. I can't see inside someone's intent or try to pull meanings from so few words that someone's written here but it seems to me that some of the comments already posted either missed what I found to be the "meaning" in the film or perhaps I found my own meanings from it that the writer/director never intended. Whichever the case may be, simply put, I liked this film because it made me smile and reflect on my own thoughts and fantasies about life, sex, love(the One) and God. Any film, book or conversation that can do that is OK in my ledger.

I loved this film. I've seen harsh reviews from disappointed folks thinking from the word "orgies" that it's porn, and then putting it down because it's not superficial or pornographic, but instead is a surprising, artsy film about feelings and intimacy.I really identify with Baxter the main character, his flaws and fears as he searches for intimacy in relationships. The only "orgies" are Baxter's fantasies he uses in his head during sex to perform when he doesn't feel intimacy. As Baxter struggles with various relationships and a controlling religious fundamentalist father, he is writing a graphic novel about a stick figure who is trying to find a portal to the 3D world; this stick-figure is a metaphor for Baxter's own search for authenticity, meaning, and intimacy in his own life.The film works, and I recommend it highly. It has some problems, and it's not anything like a polished mainstream Hollywood film, sure. But it's a gem. And that Brad Gottfried wrote, directed, and starred in this wonderful tale makes me want to see anything and everything else he's written or directed. I can understand the bad reviews if you like mainstream Hollywood stuff, but if you like eccentric quirky tales about misfits trying to overcome sexual hangups and express themselves authentically, I think you won't be disappointed with this one.

I believe the "hackneyed" term "the one" was included for precisely that reason. Part of the human condition, it seems, is to search for "the one," and the film pokes fun at this commonly shared journey quite cutely and uniquely. Although I do not know the director or his intent, and without giving too much away, it is my understanding that despite Baxter's relentless efforts to find "the one" externally, he unexpectedly (or perhaps unknowingly) finds it internally, which is "the meaning of life."Although I loved the symbolism and its conceptualized spiritual themes, I admit there were parts that did not connect as readily for me; however, this could easily have been my overlook rather than the director's. Regardless, this film made me think and it was fun to hypothesize about, which is why I really enjoyed it. I admire those who have the strength of character to share their creative vision(s) with the world, however it may be interpreted is always interesting but should not take away from their process, as it is all Goode.

Transgressive fiction; though unclear and incomplete. The idea was there, and so were the quotes. Gottfred should have just done the writing for the movie, and left the direction, production, and acting to one more adept. It's a real pity this is not a novel, as I always resort to novels when I'm unfulfilled by the movie (such as Choke). Poor acting and lack of communication with the viewer make the film a six by my standard. I dedicate myself to this type of movies, and the fact that I did not really get some of the things Gottfred intended to do suggests that the average viewer will have a much lesser chance. Yet, at end, I am glad I took the time to see the movie, many can get something out of it.
