The Man Without A Face is a 1993 feature film directed by Mel Gibson in his directing debut.

The movie is loosely based on the book by Isabel Holland, which combines elements from The Elephant Man, Mask, Scent of a Woman and The Karate Kid and is a study of the capacity for human trust and compassion.

Gibson plays Justin McLeod, a former teacher who, after having his face and his body terribly disfigured in an automobile accident, has taken to living alone in a big house in an island off the coast of Maine.

McLeod works as a free-lance artist who undergoes the humiliation of being shunned by his neighbours and called "hamburger head" behind his back.

Tagline: A fatherless boy had almost given up all his dreams... until one man believed in him enough to make them come true.
