They Called Him Mostly Harmless
Watch TrailerWhen an unidentified hiker is found deceased in the Florida wilderness, authorities release a sketch. Multiple hikers call in claiming to have met the man. There's only one problem – he never told them his name. It would take two years, thousands of devoted internet sleuths, and a miracle of science to identify him, and that's when the trouble really starts.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a dual narrative, contrasting the official investigation with the chaotic, collective obsession of online sleuths. It explores how a digital age myth is born from fragments of data and human projection, questioning our need to solve even the most intimate mysteries.
What lingers after the identification is a profound unease about the stories we impose upon strangers. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Patricia E. Gillespie
