Jenni Chang and Lisa Dazols made "Out & Around" to show the momentous changes in the status of LGBTQ equality — all around the world.
Why you should listen
When Jenni Chang and Lisa Dazols fell in love, they vowed to follow a life of adventure. Their promise led them to leave their 9-to-5 jobs, pick up a video camera and travel to fifteen countries through Asia, Africa and South America in search of "Supergays," the people who are leading the movement for gay, lesbian and transgender equality in the developing world.While interviewing LGBT leaders across the globe, they realized their journey could have larger impact beyond just self-growth, so they bought a book on how to make a documentary. Out & Around, the resulting film, captures the momentous changes in the status of queer people around the world today. A film in partnership with the It Gets Better Project, the joint mission is to share stories of hope around the world.
