GIGANTE

Thirty-five-year-old Jara is a shy and lonely security guard at a supermarket on the outskirts of Montevideo. He is in charge of monitoring the surveillance cameras of the entire building. Everything seems to be going as usual until Jara accidentally discovers Julia, a 25-year-old cleaning woman through one of the cameras, and becomes gradually attracted to her. At first, Jara spends hours watching her through the cameras while she works at the supermarket. But soon he starts following her after work, when she goes to the cinema, to the beach or even on a date with another man. One day, rumor spreads of an upcoming cutback on personnel which generates concern among the employees. When the redundancies finally become effective and the cleaning woman gets fired, Jara finds himself at a crossroad and has to decide whether to give up his obsession or confront it.
