The documentary about Austin game developer and space traveler Richard Garriott is finally touching down. “Man on a Mission: Richard Garriott’s Road to the Stars” opens today at the Alamo South and there’ll be a special screening at 7 p.m. tonight with Garriott, director Mike Woolf and producer Brady DIal. (They’ll stick around for more screenings after that since the 7 p.m. show is sold out.)
The film will also play at Alamo Village starting Feb. 1 and Alamo Lake Creek starting Feb. 9.
The documentary follows Garriott’s $30 million guest to be a commercial space traveler.
Our film writer Matthew Odam has written an excellent piece for today’s American-Statesman about the film. You can check it out here.
