Clint Dyer, Nolan Bushnell, Howard Scott Warshaw, Marlin Bates, IV, Jerome Domurat, Larry Anderson Jr.

An uncensored look at Atari’s chaotic golden era, chronicling how the rushed 1982 release of E.T. on the Atari 2600 helped topple a billion‑dollar industry and how the barren valley south of the Bay birthed a fleeting cult celebrity. Featuring candid interviews, wild anecdotes and behind‑the‑scenes stories from the designers, the film plunges into the reckless, undocumented world of early video‑game production.
