Academy Award winning directors Joel and Ethan Coen return to their comedy roots with this darkly humorous story about one ordinary man's quest to become a serious man.

A darkly comedic and hugely entertaining film-within-a-film that makes you think about cinematic representation without offering simple resolutions. Mabel, a well-intentioned Hollywood star takes the role of a blind woman in a horror movie about abnormalities. As shooting progresses, Mabel gradually falls for friendly British co-star Rosenthal, played by Adam Pearson, who has neurofibromatosis.
