Grand Theft Auto is a 2002 crime brickfilm by Patryk Wawer, based on the video game series of the same name.[1] It is notable for being the first feature length brickfilm to be released online,[2][3] although it is not the first to be primarily comprised of stop-motion animation, as it is primarily a live-action brickfilm with minimal amounts of stop-motion and computer generated animation.[4] The feature length brickfilm Tapporalli 2020 by Johannes Rojola was completed earlier but was not online until later due to lack of web space. The 2004 film Star Wars: The Great Disturbance by Leftfield Studios was the first feature length brickfilm released online to be primarily comprised of stop-motion animation.
Grand Theft Auto was the first brickfilm project that Wawer began, though he created and released a number of shorter brickfilms before its completion.[5] A director's cut of the film was released on April 16, 2005,[6][7] but this cut has not yet been located for the Brickfilm Archive.
