GAME OVER, le règne des jeux vidéo

3 votes

Producing House

Over the past ten years, online gaming has revolutionized the world of video games. Through the journeys of colorful characters across the globe, this documentary explores that revolution, offering a unique take on themes such as education, violence, and addiction. It also raises more unconventional questions, like the blurring line between the real and the virtual, our relationships with avatars, the taming of social complexity, and the new forms of sociability spawned by networked gaming. These are rarely addressed yet essential topics for understanding the true power of video games.
