Synopsis : The movie begins with a young girl experiencing a devastating car crash that leaves her with a fundamentally ruined relationship with her father and a titanium plate in her head to replace her crushed skull (the titanium is, of course, from where the film draws its title). Years later, an older Alexia works as a dancer, flaunting her spiral scar on the side of her head from her childhood surgery, and seemingly finding more in common with machines than with people, drawn to the very vehicles that once nearly ended her life. Her inability to find commonality with humans eventually lead to violence, followed by escape, an improbable disguise, and a strange yet oddly moving relationship with a grieving firefighter who injects himself daily with steroids to alter the shape of his body.
