Jumbo

Her meets Ex Machina, Jumbo is a smart, truly original and thrilling true story. Following Jeanne (Noémie Merlant, Portrait of a Lady on Fire) - a shy and awkward young woman - who has the world at her feet before she falls under the spell of a forbidden attraction. Working as a night watchwoman in an amusement park and living at home with her elderly mother, who is desperate for her to meet a man, Jeanne instead prefers tinkering in her bedroom with wires and light bulbs creating miniature versions of the theme park rides. During her late-night shifts, she begins spending time with the park's new attraction... and discovers that love can be found in the most unexpected places. As she finds herself seduced by 'his' red lights and smooth chrome finish, her passionate and intimate relationship with Jumbo, the Tilt-A-Whirl ride, begins.
