A Powerful Experiment | Looking Beyond Borders

Studies suggest it takes four minutes of direct eye contact for strangers to fall in love. So we decided to conduct a simple experiment: refugees and Europeans sat across from each other and looked each other in the eyes. People from different continents who have literally never set eyes on each other before come away feeling an amazing connections.

    The camera doesn't show what the other man was doing so we don't have the 'full picture.' This man may have been responding to a sudden sadness in the other person...or something within himself that he was connecting with..It would be interesting for each of the men to respond to what was happening for them at that moment...
