i happened across "the lump" accidentally. i found it thoroughly engaging. actually i think it was more intriguing. i loved the music, the lead character and the script. the total concept of the story was unique. it was and wasn't a learning type story. by that i mean like a bible story where one is supposed to learn something from it. you do, but then again, you don't. all and all it's just a wonderful little short story that came from a free thinking mind. i recommend it for anyone. i don't know what else to say without ruining it for others. guess i'll just repeat myself and say watch it if you get the chance. still short one line...loved the flick!
