SPOTLIGHT: A MAN AMONG GIANTS
Directed by Rod Webber

Synopsis:
A Man Among Giants documents the trials and tribulations of Doug 'Tiny' Tunstall, a self-described "ghetto republican" little-person on public assistance, who ran for Mayor of Pawtucket, Rhode Island in 2006. As a former pro-wrestler, and a member of the G.O.P. in a town with a long-sitting Democrat incumbent, Tiny has a difficult time being taken seriously. Tiny confronts the challenge head-on, applying the teachings of his loving father he defies his detractors, determined to turn his differences and assets. He developed a thick skin, a big mouth, and an even bigger personality.

After spending nearly two decades appearing on shows like WWE Monday Night Raw and The Jerry Springer Show , Tiny leaps into a political system where cash is king. And in this world, Tiny can't do much more than get out and shake hands with the voters. However, when a wealthy backer comes to champion his cause, things begin to take on a new life bringing energy and opportunity, but a whole new struggle, this time within the campaign. Tiny refuses to stop being true to himself, despite mounting pressure to appeal to a wider group of voters. Tension mounts in the wake of allegations of a bomb threat, called in by Tiny to a local radio station. By election night, Tiny has lost his backer, the polls are not in his favor and he himself is spinning out of control. The outcome of the race brings as much a surprise to Tiny as it does the electorate. A Man Among Giants is not just about politics, it's about living the American dream. It is proof positive that it's time for the little guy to be heard.
