A competitive gaming documentary titled "Frag", described as an
"underbelly of corruption, money, partying, drugs, and even
death", will makes it's premier at the AFI International Film
Festival in Dallas, Texas this weekend. The first world premier
screening will be held on April 1st, with a second showing on
April 3rd.
Filmed by Cohesion Productions and directed by Mike Pasley, the
documentary started out to cover the CPL but snowballed into a
larger eSports theme.
The synopsis on the film's official site is as follows:
"Frag is the true story of professional video gaming. Almost
everyone in the world has played a video game, but some kids do
it for a living.
Frag sheds light on the struggles that kids face while trying to
break into and maintain success in pro gaming. At a young age,
they are faced with making adult decisions that impact the rest
of their lives. Below the surface of a simple game is an
underbelly of corruption, money, partying, drugs, and even
death.
Exploited, abused, and abandoned, most gamers fail to reach the
top, but like all sports, there are heroes. Frag pulls the
curtain back on the biggest sport industry in the world, one
that you know nothing about."
The film's main characters include CPL founder Angel Munoz, the
legendary Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel, co-founder of Id Software
John Romero, and last year's breakthrough dueler, Rafik
"LoSt-CaUzE" Bryant.
Others making appearances include myself, Rod "Slasher" Breslau,
SK-Gaming's Michal "Carmac" Blicharz, GotFrag's Trevor "Midway"
Schmidt, GGL's Marcus "djWHEAT" Graham, MLG's Mike Sepso, Pro
Gam3r's Jarod "Streetrunner" Reisin, and even KISS' Gene
Simmons. A full list of participants along with other
information can be found at this location.
