IG:TM is a controversial choice! It is generally considered very cherry-picked and sets an unrealistic view of the indie game market. It's a fun, feel-good movie no doubt, but I wouldn't recommend treating it as anything more than entertainment.
I saw so much suffering in that movie it never ocurred to me that it could be seen as a feel-good movie. The devs working on the game for 2-3 years while the life was collapsing around them. I found it cathartic but not a happy story.
