THE REMARKABLE LIFE OF IBELIN

Join us for the inaugural TY programmed feature selected and hosted by IFI’s TY work experience group 2025.

From Director Benjamin Ree, The Remarkable Life of Ibelin tells the story of Mats Steen,
a young man who was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular Dystrophy at the age of 4. As his condition worsened, he found an escape in the online gaming platform, World of
Warcraft, where he plays the character Ibelin Redmoore. After his death at the age of 25,
his parents find his online blog password and post to let what they expect is a small
group of strangers know about his passing. This wonderful blend of live action
interviews, found footage of Mats growing up and gaming animation, is a captivating
glimpse into Ibelin’s remarkable life and accomplishments.

After the screening, there will be a special activity to explore themes in the film organised by the IFI TY work experience group.
