Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky’s upcoming documentary Indie Game: The Movie will be making its debut at the well-regarded World Documentary Competition at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.
The documentary follows three independant game developers — Fez‘s Phil Fish, Edmund McMillen and Tommy Refenes, aka “Team Meat” of Super Meat Boy renown, and Jonathan Blow, who created Braid and the upcoming puzzle game The Witness. Kotaku‘s own Stephen Totilo played and was impressed by The Witness recently.
You can watch the trailer for the movie here — given its subjects and style, it certainly looks like it will shine a light on the process and artistic potential of games. Its debut at Sundance in January should help bring awareness of indie developers and indie games to a large new audience. Congrats, guys.
