Where does it all start?...
New York photographer Nev Schulman, filmmaker brother Ariel and friend Henry have made a film about an 8 year-old girl named Abby from Michigan, who painted an immaculate picture of one of Nev's photographs. The painting is mailed to Nev, and soon a friendship is born.
Nev starts talking to Abby's mother, Angela, and her half-sister Megan (as you do!) They all have Facebook pages, and soon Nev begins Facebook relationships with all three. His friendship with Megan, a pretty blonde twenty-something, escalates into sexually charged exchanges, and he starts to really care for her. (Sound cue: ?)
What happens next is a sheer surprise and this funny, clever and loveable little documentary becomes a fascinating, breathtaking, heartbreaking, edge-of-your-seat look at human nature in our digital age. The internet-Facebook-iphone world we've built for ourselves will never look the same again.
Let's take a quirky look in the mirror folks!
Rated PG and in cinemas from 26 January 2011
