Following research and campaign strategy work with our long-standing partners The Human Dignity Trust, The Good Side was commissioned to create a short documentary film to amplify efforts to decriminalise homosexuality globally.

We knew that the documentary medium could be a powerful tool to raise awareness with wider audiences around the ongoing criminalisation of LGBTQIA+ people in over 60 countries worldwide. We created a human-centred narrative designed to humanise and personalise this abstract issue, and devised a festival strategy to get the film shown in as many geographies as possible.

• Selected for 57 festivals worldwide
  
• 18 award wins + 4 Honourable Mentions
  
• Finalist + Semi-Finalist placements in top-tier competitions
  
• Screenings that reached global audiences across 5 continents
  
• Strengthened the advocacy campaign’s visibility and influence
