Shangri-La Frontier 2023

Synopsis

Rakuro Hizutome only cares about one thing: beating crappy VR games. He devotes his entire life to these buggy games and could clear them all in his sleep. One day, he decides to challenge himself and play a popular god-tier game called Shangri-La Frontier. But he quickly learns just how difficult it is. Will his expert skills be enough to uncover its hidden secrets?

Notable Critics

"This four-part documentary, directed by Morgan Neville, is less a profile or biography than an evocation of a vibe and an exploration of a sensibility. It's an invigorating ramble around a singular mind and a restorative meditation on creativity."

— Troy Patterson

"So if anyone out there is in need of a guiding light, "Shangri-La" just might flip the switch."

— Ben Travers
