In this ridiculous video by Israeli Michael Mevorach, the struggles of face shaving are highlighted. 'The Mustache' is especially appropriate for Movember, a fundraising and awareness-raising campaign where men grow mustaches for the month of November for prostate cancer.
The story is about what happens when the protagonist, played by Michael Mevorach, gets silly while shaving his beard off and his electric razor breaks while he is sporting a Hitler mustache. The extremely distinctive facial hair worn by the Nazi leader was originally inspired by Charlie Chaplin of silent film fame. The plot of the short film thickens as he must leave soon in order to meet his date on time. Luckily, the video has a happy ending.
