Big Man Japan Synopsis
- Big Man Japan is a comedic film which tells the tale of the pathetic but heroic Daisato. Daisato is part of a family line of Giant superheroes. When he is shocked with bolts of electricity he is transformed into a Giant man several stories high. His job is to protect the citizens of Japan. But unlike his famous ancestors, Daisato is not appreciated by the people he protects. He is instead accused of creating chaos and destruction in his wake. Things become even more problematic for him when an ambitious agent wants to market his person to advertisers and his grandfather, who has Alzheimer's, has a habit of transforming into a destructive giant in smelly underwear.
