— A Social Distance
Cash Studios | 2020
A SOCIAL DISTANCE is a crowd-sourced film featuring residents of the countries most impacted by COVID-19, documenting their life during the lockdown. Spanning more than 30 countries, the film includes a breadth of perspectives, from a 93-year-old Malayan grandmother to a 19-year-old Slovenian man, and includes an original score that musicians from around the world remotely performed.
— “When we finally heard all the instruments come together, we were struck that, despite the distance, we can unite to make something beautiful.”
