February 7 screening features a postshow Q&A with director Albert Birney moderated by Jane Schoenbrun (I Saw The TV Glow)
Conor Marsh lives with his dog Sandy, his computer, and his hundreds of video tapes; his contact with the outside world is limited to his nice neighbor Mary (Callie Hernandez), who delivers his groceries but might be moving soon. He’s content with his existence, but an ad for a mysterious video game called OBEX promises more. By playing it, he’s forced to figure out what’s most important to him. Albert Birney’s (Strawberry Mansion) DIY fantasy charmer was a cult hit at last year’s Sundance.
