Touching Short Film Tells a Story of a Father and Son’s Bond Over Video Games

Videos Short Film by Joey Paur

I’ve got a wonderfully made short film that you need to take the time to watch today. It’s called "Player Two," and it tells the touching true story of a son who rediscovers an old X-Box that he and his late dad played together. As he starts to play a racing game he used to play with his dad, he finds a ghost in the game, his dad’s old time trial ghost, which he races against. No joke, this thing got me all kinds of choked up, so you might want to get your box of tissues ready. 

The short is based on a story shared in a YouTube comment that you can read here. "Player Two" was directed by John Wikstrom, and he did a beautiful job bringing this incredibly moving story to life for us to see.
