Documentary capturing the drama, the tension and the cruel realities faced by independent game designers as they travel the long road to making their visions a reality. Follows the designers behind three X-Box Live Arcade games: Braid, Super Meat Boy and Fez.
"Refusing to toil for major developers, these innovators independently conceive, design, and program their distinctly personal games in the hope that they, too, may find success... First-time filmmaking duo Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky capture the emotional journey of these meticulously obsessive artists who devote their lives to their interactive art. Four developers, three games, and one ultimate goal - to express oneself through a video game." (Sundance Film Festival)
