Goliath: Playing With Reality
Is an immersive VR experience that blurs the line between perception and imagination. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize for Best VR Work at the 78th Venice International Film Festival (2021) and Emmy-nominated in 2022, this game tells a powerful story inspired by real-life experiences of schizophrenia. Players step into the world of Goliath (voiced by Tilda Swinton), a man who spent years in psychiatric institutions before finding solace and connection through online gaming. The narrative unfolds through surreal visuals, emotional dialogue, and symbolic interactions across multiple realities. As you explore different dimensions guided by Goliath’s Twitch presence, you’ll uncover a moving tale of isolation, resilience, and the healing power of community. Engage with the game’s unique mechanics and witness how virtual worlds can offer real emotional support. Follow Goliath on his Twitch channel and stay updated via our Instagram. #goliathvr.
