Mechanics of Love by Dipika Guha, from SIS Productions
What do a ballerina with an artificial spine, a highly organized and fashionable wife, a mechanic who wants it all, and a man who forgets everything, all have in common? Love! Set in a mythical European city, this modern-day fairytale is a wonderfully wacky metaphor for love in all its magical, mystical glory. A romantic comedy deconstruction of the four-letter word, one syllable concept. Sometimes the only way to understand something is to forget what you know and follow what you feel.
