It could be called a musical, but isn't what that term seems to conjure.
It is all music, but of the singer-songwriter variety. Nothing fake or overly theatrical about it.
I think it's definitely something that would appeal to a Damien Rice fan. The two leads singing together could almost be Damien and Lisa. (Well...what was...) And you see a flash of Damo-type agression in that song Glen performs late at night, on the street.
Actually, I thought of Damien a lot while watching it, trying to imagine his busking days.
