Synopsis
The Giant Mechanical Man (2012) is a low-key indie romance you can watch online on iFILM. Director Lee Kirk builds it around two people who keep missing the life everyone else seems to have figured out.
Tim paints himself silver and stands frozen on the sidewalk as a living statue, mostly ignored by the crowds rushing past. Janice has just lost her job, moved in with her sister, and grown tired of being set up on dates she never wanted. Broke and out of options, they both take work at the same zoo, where they meet without the makeup or the small talk. Jenna Fischer and Chris Messina lead, with Topher Grace and Malin Akerman alongside.
Kirk's first feature trades big twists for awkward silences and small acts of kindness. It suits anyone who prefers a quiet, dry smile to a wall of jokes. Stream The Giant Mechanical Man online on iFILM.
