Social Distance is an American anthology[1] television series created by Hilary Weisman Graham that premiered on October 15, 2020, on Netflix.[2][3][4] The series was "conceived, cast and executed entirely remotely during quarantine".[5][6] The eight-part series, set during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, focuses on how families, friends, and couples were forced to cope with the effects of quarantine as well as the Black Lives Matter protests following the murder of George Floyd.[7] Each episode tells a different story and shows "the power of the human spirit in the face of uncertainty and isolation," and how technology was used to stay connected during quarantine.[8]
