…Told From the players’ perspectives, the film looks over the precipice at an emergent new art form WHERE THE REAL WORLD AND FICTIONAL NARRATIVES merge TO CREATE UNFORESEEN AND OFTEN unsettling CONSEQUENCES. FOLLOW ALONG AS WE DISCLOSE A WORLD WHOSE secret IDENTITY MAY MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ENLIGHTENMENT AND TOTAL INCOMPREHENSION.
