The other document that i can choose is a 2006 Horror film which is called stay alive . The film shows also the limit between the virtual and the real spaces. It's shows the same idea as the illustaration but goes even further in removing the border of the real and the virtual world.

The film is about a group of friends who finds herself in possesion of a game which is called Stay Alive. So they started to play at the game. But Everything does not go according to plan...
