- DirectorJeremiah HayesStarsMartin DuckworthAudrey SchirmerJacqueline SchirmerAcclaimed activist filmmaker Martin Duckworth has devoted his life to peace and justice. But now he's put down his camera to fight for the most important cause he's ever faced-caring for his wife, Audrey Schirmer, through the final stages of Alzheimer's. Martin tirelessly embraces each new chapter with grace and resilience-demonstrating his unconditional loyalty as he finds new reasons to love her each day. Dear Audrey intricately weaves together the couple's gritty yet tender reality, and takes us back to their adventures, from the front lines of the anti-Vietnam War protests to the hippie counterculture movement, with excerpts from Martin's films and Audrey's stunning photography.

His journey leads him into a secret virtual reality where one corporation has recreated the 1980s, an era that witnessed the birth of video game development, an event in which a politically and economically restricted small European country, Hungary, had a significant role. He discovers a strange but exciting world, where computers were smuggled through the Iron Curtain and serious engineers started developing games. This small country was still under Soviet pressure when a group of people managed to set up one of the first game development studios in the world, and western computer stores started clearing room on their shelves for Hungarian products. These developers really didn't know what was impossible, because they created games including amazing technical feats that even engineers at Commodore thought their machines weren't capable of. Hungarians even started developing Nintendo games without an official development kit, while the rest of the world didn't understand how they had managed to do that. Follow the agent into this exciting world and discover the untold story of Hungarian game development in the 1980s.
