Love Me, Love My Doll

2007 · 50 min

A quiet, faintly melancholy documentary that observes lonely men and their uncanny companions with curiosity rather than mockery.

Overview
This special focuses on a group of men who have fallen in love with their life-size dolls, called "Real Dolls." For these men, their $10,000 lifelike, built-to-order creations have replaced human women. For some people, finding a partner in life can be difficult. For these men, it's almost impossible. Some years ago, a small factory in California began making an alternative partner. Each one is tailored made to suit every taste. There are now 3000 real dolls across the world providing some of those with love and companionship that real women cannot.
