A Close Shave

In a quaint, meticulously crafted stop‑motion town, daily chores have a way of turning into small adventures. Wallace, a good‑natured inventor with a penchant for whimsical gadgets, runs a bustling window‑cleaning business alongside his ever‑faithful canine companion, Gromit. Their partnership is built on quiet devotion, quick wit, and a shared love for the oddly delightful details of ordinary life.

Everything shifts when Wallace’s path crosses that of the local wool shop’s owner, Wendolene, whose shop brims with soft textures and a calming presence. Their meeting sparks a light‑hearted, whirlwind romance that sends Wallace’s imagination into overdrive, infusing his world with the gentle flutter of affection and the occasional comic misstep typical of his exuberant nature.

Amid the budding romance, the town’s otherwise tranquil rhythm is nudged by a curious sheep‑related incident that spirals into a larger misunderstanding. Gromit finds himself unexpectedly framed for a sheep‑rustling scheme, a twist that throws the duo into a series of chaotic, yet hilariously inventive, attempts to set the record straight. The situation balances on the edge of farce and suspense, showcasing the pair’s resourcefulness and the film’s signature blend of humor and heart.

The story unfolds in a world where imagination coats even the most mundane moments in bright colour, and where friendship and affection provide the sturdy thread that holds everything together. With a tone that dances between gentle warmth and playful absurdity, the film invites viewers to share in the joyous uncertainty of love and loyalty, promising a charming escapade that feels both familiar and wonderfully unexpected.
