About the film

Two all-powerful aliens need someone to save the universe. They don't deal with leaders. They want the most average man alive. That's Joe. THE AVERAGE JOE is an original sci-fi comedy short film about an ordinary guy chosen for something far beyond his job description. With two unexpected visitors and absolutely no qualifications, humanity's newest representative is about to discover how little "average" means out there. Joe shows them Earth. They show him the universe. Somewhere in between, he makes the kind of mistake you can see from space — and the most ordinary man alive ends up in a chase across worlds that don't play by the same rules twice, with a seven-foot alien filming every second of it on a forty-dollar camcorder. THEY NEEDED A HERO. THEY SETTLED. SUPPORT THE FILM This is my submission to the Higgsfield Global Film Festival. If it made you laugh, a like or a comment on the project page goes a long way: W
