Second Skin (2008)

Juan Carlos Pineiro Escoriaza's 2008 documentary is a somewhat more light-hearted look at virtual worlds, with more concentration on how online connections can lead to real-world relationships.

Pineiro Escoriaza shows us a whole range of types of people who spend most of their free time gaming, and a gamut of ways in which they can be affected, in both socially positive and negative ways, by their lifestyles.

Enjoy!
