‘Passion’ is the story of Jack Passion. And his beard.
—
Defying social convention and an ambassador for the sport of competitive beard growing, Jack has pushed on to become the two-time world beard champion through good times and bad.
He shares his inspirational story with us, guiding us into his world and this award-winning 7 minute narrative documentary by Zach Bainter.
He considers what his world has become due to his beard, contemplating the thought of a cold bare world without it.
Much like the story of Samson and Delilah, he, too, faces the conflict of losing his identity and all he has become — with only a momentary decision and the quick cut of his hair.
