(SPOILER on bottom of post.)
> Ben X is a 2007 Belgian-Dutch drama film based on the novel Nothing Was All He Said (Dutch: Niets Was Alles Wat Hij Zei) by Nic Balthazar, who also directed the film.[4] The film is about a boy with Asperger syndrome (played by Greg Timmermans) who retreats into the fantasy world of the MMORPG ArchLord to escape bullying. The film's title is a reference to the leet version of the Dutch phrase "(ik) ben niks", meaning "(I) am nothing".
> The novel was inspired by the true story of a boy with autism who committed suicide because of bullying
There is also a Swedish remake (2013):
> Erik Leijonborg adapted the film into a Swedish-language remake, IRL.
[SPOILER]The reason it reminds me of that movie, is because Ben's death is faked to teach his bullies a (life) lesson.[/SPOILER]
Back when I watched it (it hit a spot), I did not play either MMORPGs nor did I know I had autism. Now I know I have autism, and I played MMORPGs.
