Synopsis courtesy of Alamo:
Michael Stone (David Thewlis), husband, father, and respected author of How May I Help You Help Them? is a man crippled by the mundanity of his life. On a business trip to Cincinnati, where he’s scheduled to speak at a convention of customer service professionals, Michael checks into the Fregoli Hotel and meets Lisa Hesselman (Jennifer Jason Leigh), a socially awkward sales rep from Akron who may or may not be the love of his life.

Charlie Kaufman turns what should be a straightforward, even bland, story into a beautiful, subtle, and deep look at ego and human connection, but the movie's impressive elements don't stop there. The film is told through stop-motion animation using puppets developed and executed by animation wizard Duke Johnson. The culminating effect is a film that's equal parts visual stunner and emotional masterpiece.
