''Metal Gear Solid: Philanthropy'' is a live-action FanFilm based on the ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' series that was produced by a team of fans in Italy.
Directed by Giacomo Talamini, ''Philanthropy'' was four years and one start-over in the making. Trailers released around 2006 generated some buzz, even in gaming magazines, for the film's apparent level of quality. The film suffered a year and a half delay from its original intended release in 2008, largely due to an important location being, unbeknownst to the production crew, demolished before principal photography could be completed. The first film, ''The Overnight Nation'', was released on September 27, 2009, and is available on [[http://www.mgs-philanthropy.net/eng/ the project's official website.]]

The plot follows the eponymous organization, Philanthropy, and their mission to end the threat Metal Gear REX knockoffs around the world pose to the balance of Mutual Assured Destruction.

!!This film provides examples of:
* ArcWords: "Jubal" in all its variations; as a battle cry, as the one who invented music in the story of the three brothers, "In the name of Jubal," the Sons of Jubal, and [[spoiler:"<JUBAL> V.4.5.10.1".]]
* AlternateUniverse: While the film borrows some elements from the entire series, most notably, Philanthropy itself, the production team considers the film an alternate ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfLiberty''. It could, conceivably, take place just before the Tanker Incident if one assumes Harrison Bishop is making an incorrect assumption about how close Philanthropy is to reaching their goals. One of the trailers mentions the Patriots, and the trailer for the cancelled second part confirms they exist in this version.
* {{Cliffhanger}}: ''The Overnight Nation'' ends with a lot of unanswered questions and a "To Be Continued..." card.
* ContinuityNod:
** The opening scene is [[spoiler: the end of ''VideoGame/{{Metal Gear|1}}'']] from the perspective of two soldiers [[spoiler: fleeing Outer Heaven.]]
** Bishop's Codec frequency is 140.85, the frequency of all Solid Snake's commanding officers.
** Pierre calls Snake "Big Chief," likely referencing Big Boss.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Pierre would rather play his UsefulNotes/NintendoDS than link up with the undercover agent (Snake) he's supposed to contact.
* ExplodingBarrel: Pierre shoots one during the group's escape from the enemy compound.
* FlatWhat: Snake's reaction to Pierre's aforementioned EstablishingCharacterMoment.
* FriendlySniper: Pierre. Snake is expecting him to be a ColdSniper based on his service records, but he turns out to be the opposite. See EstablishingCharacterMoment above.
* GagDub: After the credits, parts of the film are redubbed by the voice actors for humor:
--> '''Snake:''' (Original movie line) *tosses tourniquet* ''That's war''.\\
'''Snake:''' (redubbed) *tosses tourniquet* [[PornStash That's porn.]]\\
'''Soldier:''' Wait a sec... This is guy-on-guy! [[BigNo NOOOOOOOOOO!]]\\
'''Snake:''' [[invoked]] (singsong) [[CrossesTheLineTwice That's pooooorn, that's poooorn.]]
* HeroicBSOD: Pierre either comes close to having one of these or has a very, very minor one; it's obvious that he's bothered deeply by what's going on on the battlefield, but he never actually loses it. He may just not be used to the kind of weirdness Snake is usually involved in.
* IJustShotMarvinInTheFace: At one point, Snake is talking to the rest of his team rather passionately during the stealth operation, including hand gestures. With his gun still pointed at the enemy base. With his finger still on the trigger.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall:
-->'''Pierre:''' Okay, what's your favorite strategy for invading... giant enemy towers?\\
'''Snake:''' *Pointing at "Sewage System" sign* Like in the movies.
** Another one, earlier:
--->'''Pierre:''' Damn, man, you ''are'' cool, aren't ya? Seriously! With your dark attitude, the wild beard, the bandanna... You'd make a good video game character.
* MindRape: Heavily implied to be how [[spoiler: the Overnight Nation/Sons of Jubal create their footsoldiers.]]
* MindScrew: For what seems like a normal combat area on the surface, some pretty weird things are happening in the Daskasan war zone. The characters [[LampshadeHanging realize it as well]].
* ParrotExposition: Out of respect for its source material.
* WarIsHell:
** The opening shows two soldiers, father and son, on the run through a forest from their doomed base, [[spoiler:Outer Heaven]]. The son is shot non-fatally, so the shooter can sneak up and knife the father while he's distracted. The shooter turns out to be [[spoiler:Snake.]] Afterward, [[spoiler:Snake]] [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this as he tosses the son a tourniquet.
** The fight between the Overnight Nation and the [=ArmsTech=] troopers isn't pretty, especially at the end when one side's finally been overwhelmed by the other.
* ZombieApocalypse: The Overnight Nation troops behave like they're causing one, though they show much more intelligence than true zombies. They also have MindControlEyes.
