Here in one package are two just-under-feature-length documentaries about the face of modern addiction. Filmmaker Heddy Honigmann’s “Emoticons” turns the stereotype of Internet addicts as primarily male on its head, introducing us to a diverse group of teenaged girls and young women who cling to the Net as a lifeline of friendship. We meet a 14-year-old girl who is bullied mercilessly at school but forges positive allegiances online; an Algerian 10th grader seeking political asylum; a 17-year-old rape victim who has turned her experience around as a way to help younger girls find answers to their questions about sex; and others who are coping with illness, loneliness, family strife, or all of the above. Honigmann isn’t judgmental, though, except, perhaps, toward us and the knee-jerk reactions of some to those who seek community online. Are these girls truly disconnected, the film asks, or do we need to redefine what constitutes healthy connectedness?...
