Brian is lonely as fuck. One day, he decides to build a robot friend out of loose junk around the house. Once you buy into the quirky premise, this movie charms the pants off you. Charles ends up being a handful and eventually becomes high maintenance. Meanwhile, Brian has met someone and Charles is experiencing his own lonely pangs. It's all very low-key and no fuss. A sweet little indie with a gentle nature that moved me on a deep level. There's such an innocence about Charles that reminds me of the best android movies, from Edward Scissorhands to I'm Here. Based on the short film of the same name.
