ROAMERS accompanies different characters on their way through the countries and social media feeds of this world: From the celebrated video blogger from Palestine who quit his lucrative job at PayPal in favor of as much life experience as possible, to the former young top manager who gave up her business in Switzerland and her marriage for the adventure of a round-the-world trip, to the Argentinean couple who use their computer science skills acquired at IBM to distribute self-produced porn videos online "on demand" and thus finance their trip around the world. As digital nomads who become the creators of their impressive life stories on their own initiative, they are all sounding out the boundaries of a new era: between personal freedom and the dependence on algorithms and wifi, between self-fulfillment and self- exploitation - in search of meaning and support in a world that offers ever more possibilities and yet also seems increasingly fragmented.

Friz & Wersow. Love in the Online Age2025Documentary

The internet gave them no chance. From the very beginning, they faced a wave of criticism, rumors, and questioning of their feelings. Karol Wiśniewski and Weronika Sowa are among the most popular creators on the Polish web—an intergenerational symbol of the internet. They have been at the top for years. And they have been the subject of gossip for just as long. Although they have recorded hundreds of lifestyle videos, it is only now that they are allowing cameras into places that until now only their closest friends and family had access to. The film „Friz & Wersow. Miłość w czasach online” reveals the behind-the-scenes of their biggest projects, the pressure of time and audience expectations, but also the warmth of everyday gestures and conversations that build a real relationship. It is an authentic portrait of a “power couple,” a story of shared passion and ambition that proves that true love can weather any storm, and that family and success can go hand in hand.
