Synopsis

From executive producer Zach Braff comes an epic feature length documentary chronicling the meteoric rise of video games from nerd niche to multi-billion dollar industry. Featuring in-depth interviews with the godfathers who started it all, the icons of game design, and the geek gurus who are leading us into the future, VIDEO GAMES: THE MOVIE is a celebration of gaming from Atari to Xbox, and an eye-opening look at what lies ahead.

Available to own the day it hits theaters in the United States and Canada, versions of the film will also be available in many other countries around the world, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and all of Latin America. Subtitling and dubbing will vary country by country.

Director's Statement

My goal in telling this story is to express something that has been in my heart since I was a child. I will never forget the first video game I ever played and how it changed my perception of entertainment and storytelling. Like every other human, I love experiencing a great story, in any format. Video Games deliver stories and interactive experiences in a way that no other medium can and I think this is a reality that many people still do not understand or accept. My goal with this film is to educate and entertain the audience with the true story of the history and culture of this amazing industry.

-- Jeremy Snead, Director
