IRL (In Real Life)

Two friends, a domestic worker and a beautician, log into the BGMI combat game daily where they slip briefly out of their real lives. Through their avatars, they explore different selves, anonymity and intimacy inside the virtual world of the game, as the battlefield becomes as much about companionship and transgression, as it is about thrill. The docu-fiction explores how players reimagine their bodies and construct personas, revealing a landscape of desire and performance.
