Ben X

Synopsis

Teenager Ben has trouble with the other kids in school. They don't understand him and his difficulty in communicating (he has Asperger's Syndrome, a form of autism), so they bully him. Isolated from his peers, Ben seeks refuge online, and finds that when he is involved in role-playing games, he is just like anybody else. In fact, better than anybody else. This stunning Belgian drama will ring true for anyone who feels they don't fit in or are sometimes misunderstood, not just those who share Ben's condition.
