Absolute Giganten
Gigantic
The Hamburg friends Walter, Ricco and Floyd take each day as it comes between the estates of tower blocks and fast food restaurants. All three are in their early twenties and are dreaming of another life when Floyd suddenly takes a job on a freighter going to Singapore. The three friends spend their last night together before the boat sails the next morning. It will be the night of a lifetime. "Gigantic" is a melancholic comedy about friendship, parting and the spirit of the nineties.
