Escaping into an elaborate online game, a shy teenager begins to lose her grip on reality. As she begins to lose herself between dream and reality, a mysterious figure claims to see something special in her uploads.
“‘…World’s Fair’ is only a mere nod to the found-footage films of the 90s and 2000s and stands on its own as a fly-on-the-wall observation of a teenager’s descent into madness and the loner who wants to help her from afar. What appeals most to me comes from a filmmaker’s perspective – this is what you can do with an idea, creativity, and the perfect actors to go along for the ride.”
