Overview
The film explores the sub-culture of pro-gaming through the lives of North America’s top e-sports team, Team Evil Geniuses, as they tour the world competing for money, fame, and glory. Chris “Huk” Loranger, is Canada’s finest e-sports export and self-proclaimed diva; Greg “IdrA” Fields, a legend in the Starcraft community, now disillusioned with his once passion; Geoff “iNcontroL” Robinson, a former college football captain turned pro-gamer now at a crossroads in his career, and his bride to be, a Miss USA pageant contestant. Evil Geniuses’ CEO, Alex Garfield, is faced with the growing pains of being on the leading edge of a burgeoning multi-billion dollar industry; balancing sponsors and managing egos; all while trying to keep his own life in check.
