Gigante

It starts off with a bang, the opening credits you see the title of the film GIGANTE playing to a hard rock tune and as it peters out, you see the protoganist of the film 'Jara' on the bus going to work with a set of big headphones stuck to his head, lost in his own world.

He is big and mean looking, a bruiser who earns a living being night security at a supermarket as well as a nightclub bouncer his looks are deceptive - he is quiet and shy. A lovable lump who dotes on his nephews - he has a huge crush on one of the night cleaners at the supermarket but he has no idea how to approach her, so he starts to follow her movements because that is the only way he knows how to learn more about her.

And it is with that he plays a part in her life without her knowledge, saving her more than once with his actions without her knowing anything about it. It is only at the end we realise she knew he was there all along. How could she miss 'gigante' he isn't the most inconspicuous man in the world but because of his lack of self confidence, he thinks he is.

A wonderful film, well worth a watch.
