Plot – What's the story about?

Plot: The Giant Mechanical Man is a comedic love story between Janice (Jenna Fischer), a woman in her 30’s who has yet to learn how to navigate adulthood, and Tim (Chris Messina), a devoted street performer who finds that his unique talents as a "living statue" don’t exactly pay the bills. Out of work and forced to move in with her overbearing sister (Malin Ackerman), Janice is on the receiving end of well-intentioned but misguided pressure to date an egotistical self-help guru (Topher Grace), who complicates her search for what her heart really desires.
