Best Movies of 2025 - 25 Day Challenge - 22/ 25


A documentary directed by Sam Crane and Pinny Grylls that chronicles the attempt to stage William Shakespeare’s Hamlet inside the video game Grand Theft Auto Online during the UK’s COVID-19 lockdowns in 2021. The film follows Crane and Mark Oosterveen as they cast and produce a live virtual performance while confined to their homes. Shot entirely within the game using machinima techniques, the documentary presents all participants through their in-game avatars, blending theatre, gaming, and pandemic-era creativity.
