GTFO (also known as GTFO: Get the F&#% Out) is a 2015 American documentary film,[1] directed by Shannon Sun-Higginson, about sexism and women in the world of video games.[2][3] It premiered at South by Southwest on March 14, 2015.[2]
Sun-Higginson, a documentary filmmaker from New York City,[4] began work on GTFO in early 2012 and ultimately funded it as a Kickstarter project.[5] She was initially inspired to create the film after watching a clip from live-stream gaming competition Cross Assault in which a player repeatedly sexually harassed his teammate.[2] Sun-Higginson then "decided to take a step back and explore what it means to be a woman in gaming in general, both the positive and the negative."[2]
The movie compiles interviews from gamers, developers, journalists to show how pervasive sexist behavior is in the gaming world.[6]
The film's premiere at South by Southwest was met with primarily favorable reviews, with critic Dennis Harvey commenting: "Several other documentaries are currently in the works on the same subject, and many will no doubt be a lot slicker than 'GTFO.' But the rough edges of Sun-Higginson’s Kickstarter-funded feature lend it an ingratiating, unpretentious modesty, and its lack of rancor on a topic that might’ve easily supported a more sensationalist approach can only be a plus in reaching male gamers most in need of its wake-up call."[7]
