Gamer 4K 2009

The film is set in a not-too-distant utopian future where the highest advances in nanotechnology have allowed technological genius Ken Castle to fuse a video game with a reality show and simulate the ultra-functional, multiplayer game "The Assassins," which has become the habitat of local criminals.

John Tillman, sentenced to life in prison for a crime he did not commit, must take part in the Game to gain his freedom. To one wealthy young player, John Tillman is Cable, just a sim, a controllable character in the Game. Because of his fighting ability and physical strength, Cable becomes a national hero and ranks at the top of the game.

Every week, millions of people around the world follow him and the hundreds of other suicide bombers who participate in the game's battles online. According to the rebel group that opposes Castle, his game is high-tech slavery, and he is the critical element that must be destroyed. Cable/Tillman is caught between two powerful opposing forces who have no interest in seeing him survive. With each step watched by millions, John Tillman fights to gain his freedom, reclaim his identity, and overthrow the system that imprisoned him.
