MIYUBI
"Miyubi" is a 40-minute virtual reality scripted comedy about a Japanese toy robot - inhabited by you, the viewer - gifted to a young boy on his birthday in 1982 suburban America. Over the course of a year, as the boy's family fractures apart, you experience love and your inevitable obsolescence in an intimate, hilarious and endearing interactive story.
A virtual reality experience by Felix & Paul Studios, in collaboration with Funny or Die, starring Jeff Goldblum, P.J Byrne, Emily Bergl, Owen Vaccaro, Richard Riehl, Ted Sutherland and Tatum Kensington Bailey.
