Joysticks

In a small town, an accomplished businessman discovers a local video arcade that has become a sanctuary for children after school and during weekends. Convinced that these electronic games have a negative impact on their mental development and overall well-being, he sets out to shut down the establishment, determined to protect the young minds in his community. However, as he spends more time interacting with both the kids and the arcade's owner, he begins to uncover a deeper truth: the arcade serves as an essential social hub for children, fostering their creativity and offering opportunities for friendship and collaboration that surpass the superficial concerns of screen time. As the businessman grapples with his own preconceived notions about video games and the potential consequences of his actions, he must ultimately decide whether to prioritize progress or preserve the unique bond formed within this seemingly harmless gaming haven.
