This is one of the most compelling and personal documentaries I've seen, revealing a side of life most people never consider. It's the story of a young man recovering from a head injury and the obsession he's developed with models and action figures. Not content with merely collecting, we see the man develop elaborate story-lines and plots between them - in short, the creation of an all new world. While not a commercial success, this film was beloved by critics and is highly recommended for AGMTW fans.
Synopsis
