My Giant

Sammy Kamin, a struggling talent agent, travels to Romania on business after separating from his wife. He hopes to salvage his stalled career and secure new opportunities. The trip sets him on a path that will soon bring him into contact with a towering stranger who changes everything.

During the trip, Sammy's young client fires him, destabilizing his already fragile career. Shortly after, Sammy crashes his car and is rescued while unconscious by Max, a near-8-foot-tall Romanian man. Max carries him to safety and into a world he couldn't have imagined.

Sammy wakes up in a monastery, surrounded by unfamiliar rituals and faces. He initially believes Max is God because he can only see Max's giant hands. He learns that Max has raised him since adoption due to his height, and the monastery is where he was brought up.

Seeing Max's unusual presence, Sammy realizes there could be a market for him in films. He begins to broker Max's introduction into Hollywood and the movie business. The work ahead promises both opportunity and potential peril.

Max secures a villain role in a movie, but is so drunk that he vomits on the protagonist, who is Sammy's former client. The moment is chaotic, yet the scene is eventually included in the film. This early misstep becomes a curious legend around his talent.

Sammy consults Steven Seagal about featuring Max as a principal villain. Seagal initially turns down the idea, but changes his mind after hearing an excerpt of a Shakespearean play performed by Max. The unusual audition seals the decision.

Following medical exams, Max is diagnosed with heart disease that cannot be treated with a transplant due to the sheer size of his heart. The prognosis forces a turn toward meaningful personal decisions. Sammy begins to confront the limits of what he can do for Max.

Sammy travels to Gallup, New Mexico, hoping to reunite Max with his long-lost love, Lilliana. She rejects the invitation, leaving Max with a chance to say goodbye. To fulfill Max's wish, Sammy convinces his wife to take the role of Lilliana.

Max asks for a chance to meet Lilliana and, in a poignant moment, asks Sammy's wife for a kiss. The request underscores the emotional stakes of his desire to connect with the past. The moment deepens the bond among the trio.

Sammy and his wife realize they are still in love and decide to reunite, recognizing that their son needs both parents. The reconciliation marks a turning point that refocuses Sammy on family as much as career.

Sammy lands a three-picture film deal and a TV series for Max, giving him a platform to reach audiences and fulfill his potential. The deals validate the earlier risks and sacrifices. They leave the business on a high note.

Despite the deals, Max wants to return home to Romania. He initially refuses to go back, but eventually enters his old house and reconciles with his parents who raised him. The visit reconnects him with his roots and the people who shaped him.

Sammy watches Max's first filmed scene in a cinema with his family, a triumphant milestone that tests their bond. Tragically, Max dies shortly after due to his heart condition, leaving behind a legacy of changed lives.
