"It's January 2021. The UK has just entered its 3rd lockdown and all theatres remain closed. For actors Sam and Mark, the future looks bleak...They channel their midlife frustrations by immersing their avatars in the horrifically violent yet beautifully rendered virtual world of Grand Theft Auto Online."
"[Grand Theft Hamlet is] groundbreaking and necessary--especially at a time when more and more of our lives (even a cultural artefact as ancient as live theatre) move online," the film's creators shared in a statement.
"The film consists of nothing but in-game footage from Rockstar's award-winning 2013 classic, and interestingly enough, it's winning awards, too. Grand Theft Hamlet won this year's documentary film competition at SXSW..."
"An innovative, immersive take on Shakespeare's Hamlet, shot entirely inside the world of Grand Theft Auto, Pinny Grylls and Sam Crane's festival hit GRAND THEFT HAMLET is coming soon to US theaters + streaming globally."
