Throwback to 2017 when I was contacted and selected by @papaya_films to do an episode for their original series by filmmakers around the world. It was an incredible gift to be given a grant to do whatever I wanted to do! This is one of my favorite ideas I’ve executed. Only focusing on the hands of five people while being asked the same questions separately and finding that we have more in common than we think. I remember certain stories being told and Rick and I looking over at one another being mind blown of how much connection there is. Thanks for giving me the opportunity and platform to try a thing Papaya Films! . . “Episode 13 of the Papaya Films Original Series. Five strangers, five same questions and a piece of string explore a moment of human connection in Machete Bang Bang’s ‘The Things That Tie Us Together’.” . .
