Colette, a short documentary film co-produced by Respawn Entertainment, Electronic Arts, and Oculus Studios, has won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject. The film was released as one of several documentaries in last year’s Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond, making the win all the more notable. The short film follows Colette Marin-Catherine, a former member of the French Resistance during World War II. Her brother died in the concentration camp at Mittelbau-Dora, and Colette sees her visiting the location 74 years after his death. It’s a powerful film, and its win should break new ground for the video game industry.
We’re over the moon about Colette’s Best Documentary (Short Subject) #Oscars win tonight! From Vince, Peter, and all of us at Respawn, we are humbled and honored. Thank you.
