Can Desire Make Her Exist?

1999 · 87 min · ★ 3.7 · Comedy, Music, Romance

Trevor (Andrew McIntyre) has never had any particular difficulty in meeting beautiful women to spend time with, but his failure to find the perfect female has left him stymied. Shifting from sorority girls to sex fiends and models, Trevor remains uncomfortable with the idea of settling for just any girl. But after hitting it off with spirited punk rocker Janice (Marnie Robinson), he debates setting aside his quest for physical perfection in order to have a meaningful relationship.
