The Papers, Please short film is out now on YouTube (and Steam shortly). Have a gander at the 10-minute flick below.
The film absolutely nails the look, sound and feel of the superb dystopian document thriller, with a cool nod to the quick-fire puzzle element of the game. The wonderful metronome music from the game makes it into the film, too.
Like the video game, the Papers, Please film is a border control thriller. The unnamed inspector from the video game is played by Igor Savochkin, a Russian actor who starred in Leviathan and Night Watch. Like the game, the film is set entirely at the Grestin border control checkpoint, and references the fictional community country Arstotzka.
