Valerie J @RT85094956 Aug 22, 2026 This is a beautifully told documentary about Mats Steen and the impact he had on his on-line community of mighty gamers. It is told through his own words, through his family (who worried about him) and his on-line friends who got to know him on a deep and respectful level, not always without conflict. I hope in watching this, people will realize that love is love, connection is connection, and ableism must be eradicated. Very powerful! See more Glenn G. @GauchoGuy Nov 19, 2025 Well done. Many eyes were welling up! See more Vince Q. @Vincedeq Nov 3, 2025 Doc about the secret online fantasy life of a boy who had a degenerative muscle disease that confined him to a wheelchair at the end of his life. His parents only discovered this alternate online persona after he had passed. Cool that the parents ultimately discovered that their child had this hidden dimensionality, but it begs the question, why didn't they participate in this aspect of his life while he was alive. The doc doesn’t really address that. See more Movie F. @hiker Sep 19, 2025 A very touching true story about a young man with muscular dystrophy and the close online gaming community that cared. See more Scott M @Skeeeeezo Aug 5, 2025 I didn't have enough knowledge of Warcraft to fully understand how the story was being told, but otherwise a very creative approach to storytelling -RIP Ibelin. See more Mike M @markovich Jun 13, 2025 Touching movie with a powerful ending. A life well lived. As a former WoW player, though, the animation scenes took away from the story in my opinion. The game doesn't work in the way that it was told and animated through others' stories about Ibelin. See more Read all reviews
