Comedy team Sweaty Robot (check out our interview with Sweaty Robot) debuts their first feature film adapted from one of their acclaimed shorts -- a silly little tale about a fellow who fakes his facial hair. Nick Gregorio stars as Harris, who has been living a lie since his father was killed in a fire many years ago and he lost the ability to grow facial hair. For years Harris has been drawing his facial hair on with a sharpie or makeup and his best friend Paul (Eric M. Levy) has never had the heart to tell him how ridiculous he actually looks. Sweaty Robot brings their own unique brand of humor (think something along the lines of The State meets Kids in the Hall) to this story and sticks to their own sensibilities relentlessly. Not every joke is a gem, but there are enough laughs that you should soon find yourself seduced into the fun.
