About this event

Hutch Mansell (Bod Odenkirk) is an ordinary father and husband, stuck in a menial office job, resigned to taking life's indignities on the chin and never pushing back. A nobody, by any other name.

So when two thieves break into his suburban home one night, he decides not to defend himself or his family, hoping to avoid escalating the situation into violence. Unfortunately, all this serves to do is further alienate him from his wife (Connie Nielsen) and his teenage son (Gage Munroe). Only his youngest daughter, Sammy, seems to show him any affection, but when it transpires that the thieves may have taken something of hers, Hutch's long-simmering rage finally boils over. Before long, dormant instincts are triggered and this unassuming nobody is propelled on a brutal path to ensure that he will never be underestimated again.

A thoroughly enjoyable and absurdly violent romp, Nobody is a film that doesn't take itself too seriously or pretend to be anything it's not.
