Actors Cary Elwes, Jay Baruchel and Glenn Howerton with director Matt Johnson “I’m a fan of fake documentaries, I love the visuals,” Johnson said at the press conference this Friday (17), supported by a cast of actors that includes Jay Baruchel , who starred in the comedy “She’s Too Much for Me” (2010). Like other films about technology addicts, “BlackBerry” satirically portrays a group of young people who, dressed in jeans and T-shirts, with long hair and listening to rock music all day all manage to turn upside down, globally, the entire gigantic sector of mobile phones. Greed transforms some of them, while around them swarm executives in suits and ties willing from the outset to exercise a monopoly in the sector.”In the beginning of the internet, what mostly existed were forums talking about ‘Star Trek'”, said Johnson, who developed the argument from a journalistic investigation into the origins of the Blackberry. “In reality, we live in a world that we inherited from that s avant-garde young people, which they built from the movies they watched”, he added. The idea of the cell phone was a classic in science fiction films, and young people like Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie, the creators of the Blackberry, seriously,” said the director of the film with a smile.
