The documentary Ibelin

Recommended Posts

Last weekend I watched a Norwegian documentary named Ibelin, and I loved it. I think it's quite an important film for gamers to watch, as it focuses on virtual friendships and relationships that I bet a lot of people here can relate to.

Mats Steen was a young man who grew up in Norway with a muscular condition called Duchennes, that bound him to a wheelchair for most of his life. As he got older he lost more and more of his motor functions, and he sadly passed away at only 25 years old. Because of his condition, Mats spent most of life sitting in front of his computer playing video games, primaraly World of Warcraft. His parents we worried for him that he spent all his time inside his apparment and didn't have a social life at all, but after he passed away they learned that was not the case at all.

I don't want to give too much away, but I highly, highly recommend watching it.
