SUMMARY:Alexandria Coffeehouse Film Series October Film: "Ben X"
DESCRIPTION:The Washington Digital Video Meetup Group\n\nThe Alexandria Cof
 feehouse Film Series \nOctober Feature\n"Ben X"\n\n\n"Rarely has so much em
 otion and excitement been compressed into 90 minutes of screen time."  \n~ 
 Denis Seguin\, Screen Daily\n\nRunning Time: 93 Minutes. \nIn Dutch with En
 glish subtitles. Unrated.\n\nSynopsis\nBen is different. His life is a univ
 erse all to itself\, where he avidly plays his favorite on-line computer ga
 me in an attempt to train for and block out the reality of his daily experi
 ences.  Ben has Asperger's Syndrome\, a mild form of autism that prevents n
 ormal communication and makes him ideal fodder for all the school bullies. 
  As the bullies' relentless attacks push him over the edge and out of contr
 ol\, his on-line dream girl\, Scarlite\, appears to him and helps him devis
 e a perfect plan to confront the bullies and make them pay for their tormen
 t. Director Nic Balthazar's dazzling debut blends fantasy and harsh social 
 realism\, based on a true story\, to bring us an utterly original and impor
 tant film. \n\nBlogsite\nCheck out the Film Series Blogsite for details inc
 luding a preview trailer for the film\, a link to the movie's website\, dir
 ections to the restaurant and more!\n\nNotes\nBecause the films in this ser
 ies have not been widely distributed\, most of them are unrated.  Please be
  advised that unless otherwise indicated these films generally contain adul
 t themes and are not suitable for children.\nRather than being an "official
