At the height of Cold War fever in the 1950s, 9-year-old Hogarth discovers a giant robot from outer space and quickly becomes fast friends with the alien entity. But when a paranoid government agent decides he must destroy the robot, Hogarth joins forces with a beatnik to save its life. Adapted for the screen and directed by Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratatouille), The Iron Giant is considered to be one of the greatest American animated films and beautifully explores the power of friendship and kindness.
