Big Things(2009)

Don't Expect Too Much

Big Things is a film about Richard, a cycle courier trapped in a dead-end job who becomes obsessed with completing his indie film "A Distance Too Far." Convinced the project will launch him, his friends, and his girlfriend toward fame and fortune, Richard pours everything into his supposed masterpiece—driven by desperation to escape his family's fate. As his ambition grows, the line between dream and delusion blurs, and those closest to him begin to question whether his vision is salvation or self-destruction. The film explores the cost of chasing stardom and the weight of unfulfilled potential.
