The story

Benjamin "Benny" Pearl and his mentally ill sister Juniper ("Joon") live together following the deaths of their parents.

An avid Buster Keaton movie fan, Sam charms servers and patrons at a diner with a classic Charlie Chaplin routine using two bread rolls on forks to mimic dancing feet as well as a slapstick routine juggling plates.

Warming to him, Joon aids Sam, who is illiterate, when he struggles with writing to his mother.
