4PM: DOCUMENTARY - LOVE CHILD (2014, 75 min) follows the first tried case of Internet Addiction the world has ever seen. Filmed over two years in Seoul, the film follows the story of a young couple in South Korea who were immersed in an on line game raising a fairy child and their real life baby died of neglect. The 2010 trial that followed saw the first ever usage of the term 'Internet Addiction' as the young couple's lawyer crafted a mental illness defense. Weaving together footage of the game, interviews and reenactments, director Valerie Veatch tells a haunting tale set in a world where virtual is the new reality.
