Going Cardboard

Going Cardboard A Board Game Documentary is a 2012 documentary about the American adoption of Germanstyle board games, and includes coverage of the 2009 board game event Spiel in Essen, Germany, as well as interviews with many prominent game designers. The film was written, directed and produced by Lorien Green, who was introduced to board gaming by her husband. It was financed through the crowd funding service Kickstarter.

The Geeks Playing Games website called it a must see for anyone interested in the people behind the games and the process behind the production, although German newspaper Der Spiegel criticized it for being somewhat dated, as the film spent several years in postproduction and only covers games up to 2009.
