THE FILM
Attendees of the 2021 Office Super Fan Festival were asked one simple question: "What does The Office mean to you?"
A documentary about passionate fans from around the world and how they use the show to help get them through life, the real city of Scranton where the show's fictitious paper company resides, the benefits of online communities, and what it means to celebrate the beauty in ordinary things. Early reviewers of the film say it is a joyous time, and we think that's what the world needs right now.
