One thing that amused me in the otherwise good trailer is the continued statements about Go being the best game in the world. It is no doubt great, but I've seen so many competitive games with their own kind of beauty (and surprisingly many takes on one kind of beauty - parallels from game to game are fascinating to find) and challenges that labeling one as "the best" just seems silly. Otherwise a good trailer and hopefully well-earned funding. I can only wish you luck in your endeavour.

Seriously can't wait for this! Is it already released? I have a feeling I may be behind.

http://www.surroundinggamemovie.com/en/ is their website.
A brief summary on where the project stands(as I see it, I'm not a team member of anything though so take this with a grain of salt).
They have all their filming from China, Korea, and U.S. And could basically start editing/compiling right now to make the film. However they want to try to up the scale and have added another fundraising goal to make it closer to a professional project then an amateur one. The documentary will be finished regardless of how successful this second drive is though, so don't worry about that!
