I Kill Giants
My First Film Fest 2
November 10 - 12, 2017
A precocious teenager battles demons both real and imaginary in this exhilarating emotional odyssey based on the acclaimed comic-book series by Joe Kelly and Ken Niimura.
Q&A with Joe Kelly
Smart, rebellious, and unafraid to speak her mind, precocious teenager Barbara Thorson (Madison Wolfe) lives in two worlds. There is the turbulent reality of school and home, where she deals with bullying and parents who are out of the picture. And then there is the rich imaginary life she’s created, in which she is a fearless hunter of monstrous giants who threaten her town. But as Barbara’s fantasies turn increasingly dark, it becomes clear: the real demons are the ones she battles within herself. Based on the acclaimed comic-book series by Joe Kelly and Ken Niimura, this exhilarating emotional odyssey immerses viewers in the mind of a young woman taking on life’s challenges in her own way.
