WE MET IN VIRTUAL REALITY

SHOWMAX | 2022 | DOCCIE | WATCH FROM THU 1 SEPT

People have second lives online, and sometimes those lives have bodies, clothes, friends and working communities. This special documentary, filmed entirely in virtual reality, shows the love, loss and connections made within the world of online platform VRChat, where judgments about your physical body don’t drown out every other aspect of who you are. Some negative interactions have been glossed over; as with every community, there are toxic elements. But it’s always fascinating to watch when a relatively closed community breaches containment.
