[In Context] Quad Gods: searching for self after neurological injury

“The biggest misconception people have about us is that we are fragile”, says Blake Hunt, a member of Quad Gods—the first all quadriplegic Esports team that was recently documented in a film directed by Jess Jacklin. In Quad Gods, the viewer learns about Prentice Hall, Richard Jacobs, and Blake Hunt, three men who were united through circumstance. They met at Mount Sinai’s Abilities Research Center in New York (NY, USA) after surviving near-fatal neurological injury that left them paralysed. Forming friendships in the physical world would later take the Quad Gods into the alternative virtual universe of gaming.
