“Six years ago, #Melbourne-based film-maker #KristinaKraskov read an article about an international #MicrosoftExcel competition and had two thoughts. The first: “What the hell, that can’t be real.” The second: “There’s got to be a film about this – I want to watch it so badly.”
There wasn’t a film about competitive #spreadsheeting, so Kraskov decided to make it herself. The subject appealed to the director, whose work captures “different inner worlds that are a bit unusual on the outside”, including a short film titled Party in the Back, about a mullet festival.
#Spreadsheet Champions, which will screen at the Melbourne international film festival, follows six young competitors from around the world as they head to Florida for the 2023 #MicrosoftOffice Specialist world championship to showcase their skills. It might sound silly, but Excel is an incredibly sophisticated #application – according to the #documentary, the average person uses only 10-15% of its capabilities, but would-be competitors are required to understand closer to 70% of what it can do.”
Joel Spolsky (MS Excel PM) would get a kick out of this.
