WoW player here myself. I can't even imagine how his parents felt losing their son. I am a roleplayer as well and while I don't know what having Duchennes is like. I can relate to Mats finding friends in the game. Some of the people I talk to regularly are people I met in game. The connections and friendships you forge in game are very real. Mats wanted to matter, and despite his own challenges he helped others by being there for them as someone to talk to. Even now I think Mats is still helping people by showing us what you can accomplish just by listening to others.
Hello. I happened to watch a film about your son's life on the internet, and it made me want to cry. I mean, I was born in a situation where both my parents had mental illness (it’s a long story), and I’ve always wondered about the meaning of life and searched for others who have been through similar things. I can understand and feel the emotions in Matt’s blog because I see myself in many of those moments. I don’t really know what to say; it’s just overwhelming. I just tried searching for his Facebook profile and found you. I just wanted you to know that you have a remarkable son-few people born in such a situation are so profound and attentive to the world. Wishing you a good day.
Mats and everyone involved, from parents to friends and producers, deserve an Oscar for this masterpiece. It is of such importance in the digital era, and there is simply nothing that explains in simple terms why gaming is so important for many-disabled or not. This is one of the most important movies in terms of fighting stigma, ever! Rest in peace, Mats. 💖 What you have done for so many will be written in time, forever!
The way you captured everything was absolutely wonderful. I play on the same server he did, but never met him. But when you have community on a server, it feels like it happened in your own little town-- virtual town. Seeing people gather at the memorial, in game- seeing the way his life was represented, is something so many roleplayers can connect with. I saw myself in Ibelin, and he made me want to become a better version of myself. May he rest in peace.
It's the most moving story I have ever seen . Mats was not only a beautiful soul, but he cared so much about his friends and the struggles they had . When someone goes through this much pain and sorrow, they don't want to wish it on anyone, especially their friends . I learned a lot from this film and how to be a better person. Thank you mats
I love that they made the choice to solely cast disabled voice actors for the film’s avatars, to honor and include more people like Ibelin! That is such a powerful and inclusive choice! I’ve been hearing so much about this film and I can’t wait to see it now after knowing so much background!!!
Absolutely beautiful film. It's a movie about grieving but also of friendships, of finding a way to live as fully as you can, of making a difference in other people's lives.
humans are real, inside every story that actually happened "irl". the moment you hear words about anyone "not being aware" of something because of a disability, you know you should respect everyone involved with... silence, doesnt matter how long is your conventional minute :)
Imagine doing all this and being fully appreciated only after you died. They make movies about him now, what about when he was alive? Too small a tragedy right? Got to wait for the right moment to shock the audience.

I see you and you matter. Take care and God bless you.
Watched this last night. Such an incredible, moving documentary. I cried so much at the end. Definitely recommend this documentary.

I have visited the grave in the game and paid my respects.
Incredible and fantastic documentary! He touched so many hearts ❤ RIP Ibelin 😢

I didn’t know this! That’s amazing
The story of Ibelin is truly touching.

The Remarkable Life of Ibelin is such a important film
No, it isn't.
@MaxHardcore-p7t In my opinion it is. Doesn't matter what you think.
@xwiick did you zucc him off?
@@MaxHardcore-p7t its more important than your comments

Thank you for making this film, Benjamin
I just finished watching this film. Remarkable story, touching and so well done. Beautiful film.
One of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen and beautiful tribute - bittersweet Mats will never know this legacy
This is the best documentary I have watched. It is INCREDIBLE, thought provoking and will stay with you long after it ends. Oscar worthy.
If this doesn't win several awards, the Oscars should just disband.
This one deserves an Oscar so much!
The 18th of this month will be the 10 year anniversary since Ibelins death.
How will you celebrate?
@@MaxHardcore-p7t seems like you envy Ibelin that he got famous and you are still living with your parents
We already have the winner 😎
Great Film! Well done.
Incredible documentary
I don't use netflix but after seeing this, it seems it would be an awesome story.
Amazing movie

What? He was appreciated at the time by his friends, I suggest you to watch the movie
Just watched it last night. It’s a very touching story.🥲
