A middle-aged ice truck driver, stuck in a dull marriage, finds a dead body in the back of his truck. Unsure of what to do, he goes about his day with the body wrapped up, and hidden under the ice. With the presence of the body and a moment shared with a local waitress, Tony finds a new found power in his life.
QuietGiant collaborated with Madison on her Bachelor of Film & TV (Honours) project exploring the concept of the power of lust & death on the lonely human psyche. Peter Richards' nuanced performance as the ice delivery driver is a masterclass in non-dialogue acting and expression.
