This film is an innovative cinematic experience which infuses feelings in what is usually a cold environment: the virtual world of a video game. Magic happens in the urban environment of a virtual San Francisco: a place very familiar, with almost real architecture, infrastructure and movement, yet altered by the feeling of virtuality. Bringing in the aesthetics of film, by filming the world of the game in black and white, creates unity while the artificiality is always there in the flickering light.
