Description
Insert Coin is the amazing behind-the-scenes story of one of the greatest video game studios of all time – Midway Games. Led by the “godfather of video games” Eugene Jarvis, the company pioneered the concept of live action gaming, kickstarting a new arcade boom and grossing billions of dollars in the process with massive hits like Mortal Kombat and NBA Jam – franchises still popular today. Through intimate and often hilarious interviews with the people who were there, we witness how a small, tight-knit group of friends deal with next level success and the roller coaster ride that comes with it. Official Selections: SXSW 2020, Cleveland International Film Festival, BAFICI, Newport Beach Film Festival, Melbourne Documentary Film Festival, San Francisco Documentary Film Festival
