Zero Charisma world premiered at SXSW Film Festival where it won the Audience Award in the Narrative Spotlight category. It received strong critical acclaim with Ain't It Cool News noting that "Zero Charisma is geek heaven" and Badass Digest raved that "it is, almost certainly, the best film ever made about nerds...it's hilarious, it's sweet, and in the end it's just a little bit heartbreaking."

As the strict Game Master of a fantasy role-playing game, Scott (Sam Eidson) leads his friends in a weekly quest through mysterious lands from the safety of his grandmother's kitchen. But his mastery of his own domain starts to slip - along with everything else in his life - when neo-nerd hipster Miles (Garrett Graham) joins the game, winning over the group with his confident charm and dethroning Scott with an unexpected coup. Caught in delusions of grandeur, Scott must roll the dice and risk everything to expose Miles as the fraud he believes him to be. A darkly comedic fable of epic proportions, Zero Charisma is an ode to nerds from every realm.
