Please check out the HD, DRM-free digital download from Gumroad. Not only does it come packed with bonus content, but you also will be able to pay whatever you want for the package. It is my way of fundraising for my next film, while still getting the film out there for everyone to see.

If you can not use the Gumroad store due to lack of credit card, please Paypal me at adam.evans727@gmail.com any price you choose and i will send you a link for the download.

Thanks to everyone in the community who helped me and inspired me. I am really excited to see the film get out there.

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to check out the film. It really means the world to me.

Edit: High quality prints of the film poster are available on Michael Rogers' Etsy store.

The soundtrack is available from CSSC's Bandcamp page.

A blast from the past!
So much have changed since this was filmed but the passion is still here.

Such a shame this is released now when it's been a while since IPL hit the grave.
(would have been almost perfect if this was available then)

Thanks for creating it and releasing it, such a good feeling watching this and remembering everything around IPL3.

Hmmmmm.
Not sure how I feel about this documentary.
I feel like there was a great initial idea, but the themes were all over the place.
It seemed like 33% promoting behind the scenes IPL (which is awesome), 33% ESPORTS growth (generic but still awesome) and then 33% megumixbear (why did she get so much camera time, and I don't know what she was talking about half the time)
Cool to see David Ting's perspective and the Floor Manager and stuff, I wish more actual staff was interviewed more heavily, and maybe some players about their thoughts on IPL.

Seeing as how the title was "The Culture of IPL", I feel like this documentary failed to deliver, sadly.

I did not like it.

mizU did a good job describing it.
I am not good with quotes

I'm really not sure what they wanted to tell or show me with that documentary. Felt like a bunch of random interviews and scenery shots thrown together.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out.

I wish it could have been out when all the stuff with IPL was going down, however, there were issues with festivals and releasing a film online. All of it is very hard to coordinate.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out and post your thoughts on it. Rogue Cinema did a really great review on it that points out the atmosphere that I was going for. I appreciate your feedback and even taking the time to check out the film.

Good vid but your opening shots r from 2011, and IPL is dead and irrelevant now.

And your point is?

A bit of analytics:

The link to the Vimeo page has been clicked over 9000 times. The video has around a 50% turnover rate (meaning that half the people who click on the link end up watching the film.) This is really awesome.

The film has been viewed in over 100 countries, with the US, Canada, Germany, UK and Sweden making up the top 5.

Of the ~4500 people who have viewed the film for free, over 1000 of them have visited the Gumroad store at gum.co/metadoc

Thanks so much to everyone who has viewed the film in the past week.
