Filmed entirely inside the world of virtual reality (VR), this immersive and revealing documentary roots itself in several unique communities within VR Chat, a burgeoning virtual reality platform. Through observational scenes captured in real-time, in true documentary style, the film reveals the growing power and intimacy of several relationships formed in the virtual world, many of which began during the COVID-19 lockdown, while so many in the physical world were facing intense isolation.

We Met in Virtual Reality
Virtual reality really did boom during the pandemic, allowing people to make connections with other people and stay in touch with loved ones in a way unlike any other kind before. The virtual space itself isn't new. There have been countless other avenues for this kind of interaction before, but there is a certain sense of tactileness to VR that other virtual spaces don't have. Occupying a space is different from visiting a site or logging onto a forum.

We Met In Virtual Reality gets to do something very unique with how it explores the love lives of those in long distance relationships. We Met In Virtual Reality gets to show us these couples in the exact place where they met in a way that means something wholly specific to each couple. To occupy this digital space with these people and their loved ones and friends they have over virtual reality is an interesting experience. After a while you forget that these are simply just avatars, especially with how these people talk about one another. It's a very special documentary that takes full advantage of the subject matter to showcase what makes it special
