It’s crazy to think we have been living in this pandemic now for more than half a year now. What was once normal is unusual, and vice-versa. SOCIAL DISTANCE is Netflix’s new eight-part anthology series, set in the initial months of the COVID-19 pandemic. Each standalone episode is told through a virtual lens and captures the unique emotional experience of being forced apart by circumstance and having no choice but to communicate remotely and rely on technology to maintain any sense of connection.

Through these varied and deeply human stories, SOCIAL DISTANCE aims to provide some much-needed catharsis during a tumultuous time while also capturing a snapshot of this singular moment in history. Watch Netflix’s first official trailer for SOCIAL DISTANCE below:
