Various forms of reality are confounded as filmmaker Douglas Gayeton explores the mystery of missing California man named Moltov Alva through a series of documentaries posted in the online community of Second Life. Shortly after Alva went missing in January of 2007, Gayeton discovered a series of diaries by a man with the same name. Curiously enough, these detailed entries were all posted in an online community known as Second Life -- an online destination that allows users to create a virtual counterpart that can explore strange landscapes and communicate with other like-minded cyberspace dwellers. In a virtual community where reality and fantasy blur, the search for a missing person offers absorbing commentary on the manner in which we are drawn into other realms of consciousness on a day-to-day basis.
