Uber Goober

“Über Goober” delves into the intriguing and often misunderstood realm of Gamers, a subculture that can sometimes spark controversy and is always a bit nerdy. Directed by Steve Metze, the documentary investigates various gaming communities, including historical miniature enthusiasts, role-playing aficionados, and those known as “LARPers.” The film also addresses challenges from religious groups, negative portrayals in the media, and some of the harshest street interviews ever captured on video. Viewers are introduced to Gamers, their unique jargon, peculiar customs, impressive costumes, and the meticulous artistry involved in painting their miniatures.
