Voice Over |
Tell the jury anything relevant about the direction.
To entice gamers without revealing a single image of the game, there’s no other choice: it has to be spectacular and striking.
Everything here was thought out as a feature film. The entire film was shot on location in Greece, in the very spot where the Peloponnesian War took place, and with natural scenery and local casting. Each combat scene was carefully choreographed.
Write a short summary of what happens in the film
Rebellion knows no age or era.
The film Choose Life is set in Ancient Greece, in 431 BC during the Peloponnesian War, and introduces viewers to Alexios, the rebellious hero in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Drawing a parallel between the game and Trainspotting’s notorious opening sequence seemed like an obvious choice to introduce this unconventional hero, who must make the right choices to survive his era’s violence, plotting and power-struggles.
Cultural/Context information for the jury
Over the past three years, teams at Ubisoft studios have been creating an exciting new chapter for the Assassin’s Creed® franchise.
The latest instalment—Assassin’s Creed Odyssey—takes players on an epic journey through Ancient Greece, inviting them to forge their own destiny. It is up to you, the player, to choose which of the many paths you will take through a rich world that is constantly evolving around you. But as the Oracle of Delphi would say—be warned—every choice you make will have consequences.
