In a world where men are quietly seeking connection but struggling to find it, the barbershop poses as a space for them to build relationships. The star of this film, Tristan Cramer, explores connection and love in two very different but connected spaces. As a barber, he serves and pours life into his customers, but who pours into him? Tristan invites us to think about connection in our lives through the frames of his life. Barber asks the question: how do you love those around you?
