6 DEGREES

6 KROKÓW

The film is inspired by Milgram's 'Six degrees of separation' theory with its assumption that every person in the world can be reached through 6 personal connections. The crew tries to explore the chain of connections between two randomly drawn protagonists: a young punk-rock musician from Warsaw, Poland and a farmer from little village in Mexico. Movie camera follow the everyday life of all our protagonists and try to discover what’s hidden beneath their everyday masks. Doesn’t the longing for love, acceptance, career, friendship and a decent life reminds us of ourselves?
