Lighthearted but Shallow: 1Up's Take on Women in Gaming
In a post-Gamergate media landscape, it's ambitious to have a film confront the harsh reactions to women in gaming from a comedic lens.
Fit-Boy
A no-budget film, produduced single-handed, Fit-Boy is a tale of a group of lads in their late 20s who still haven't quite settled down in their lives yet. One of the group, the womanizing, drug-dealing Fit-Boy (so named because of his skills with the ladies), is starting to get out of control.... With all the crew and cast working for free, and consisting of many first-time actors, Fit-Boy belies its production values and is a very enjoyable, dark drama-comedy.
