The debut feature by the filmmakers known as Sweaty Robot is a playful yet poignant labor of love that offers a fresh take on friendship, loyalty, and bushy mustaches.
Harris Malden fakes his facial hair, and as far as he's concerned, nobody can tell. No one in the neighborhood, not even his best friend Paul or his brother Melvin, has the heart to tell Harris how ridiculous he looks with the thick, black lie about his lip. Everything is fine in Harris' world – until Paul brings an outsider to his 25th birthday party who immediately calls out Harris' hairy imposter, leaving the young man and his friends to deal with the fallout of his open secret. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HARRIS MALDEN creates a quirky world that borders on dramatic but always remains human and absurd – as people and relationships tend to be. The funny and engaging banter reveals everyone's inner strengths and weaknesses but enlightenment bears an emotional burden for everyone. The Sweaty Robot team displays impressive comedic timing that could only come from a group familiar with each other and innately aware of how to make people laugh, and if the moment is right...maybe even cry.

Lots of heart blood sweat and tears based on this group's prior short. Cute story fleshed out, lovely camera work and dialog (sweating robot guys said they wanted the cast to feel like the dialog was natural so they allowed changes). Pulls the right emotional strings for a story set in the big city.
