The Giant Mechanical Man
The movie is an offbeat romantic comedy about a street performer and an unemployed woman, who's living with her well-intentioned but overbearing sister, as they help each other realize that it only takes a single person to engender someone's self-worth.

This cute dramedy tackles well-trod ground in the world of indie film but Lee Kirk conveys enough honest affection for his well-crafted characters that the piece works.

Replete with eye-roll-inducing contrivances and heavy-handed symbolism - both lovers share dreams of their teeth falling out - this arrested-development comedy panders to the work-averse by taking easy aim at ambitious careerists.
