The Myth of Hideo Kojima: A Missed Opportunity for Fans.

The hour-long documentary on Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima, premiered at Tribeca Festival, inflates Kojima’s mythology as an untouchable auteur until it totally obscures him, like a cloud. Connecting Worlds spends the majority of its runtime on cherry-picked moments from Death Stranding’s production and avoids the topic of Konami altogether. The documentary is for the superfan who is terrified to challenge Kojima’s reputation and not for anyone who wants to actually learn something about Kojima, his obsessive creative process, or why there isn't a single woman in any of the shots filmed at his studio.
