6 Degrees
Bartosz Dombrowski / Poland / 2013 / International Premiere / 80 min.
synopsis
The Six Degrees of Separation theory states that any two people in the world are connected by a maximum of six people who know each other. To test this theory, the Polish filmmakers set off on a long trip whose beginning and end were determined by lottery. On the various stops of their journey from a young Warsaw musician to an uneducated Mexican farmer, we learn a great deal about the various forms of interpersonal relationships. This experimental documentary, presented as a concrete application of a theoretical construct, is a visually impressive parable about closeness over large distances and the separation of people who are physically close together.DETAIL:
“I don’t think there are five good relationships in politics. You have a few, less than that. Because you are not gonna trust anyone. No one. Betrayals are on this business I think everywhere.”
