Recently some friends took their kids to The Void- an advanced VR installation for the public now in several cities. The kids, preteens- were amazed and excited, recounting their exploits in the VR world. The parents, in a hesitant and worrying tone confessed that normal reality, by comparison, was ... a bit boring. Uh-oh. This film looks at how that could play out in the near future... A social worker visiting "VR-dependent neighborhoods". And it gets worse. Written and directed by: Federico Heller
