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.

Designed with film festivals in mind, ‘A Better Place’ has so far been selected for 40 international festivals, with 17 x award wins, 1 x award finalist,  3 x award semi-finalists,  4 x nominations and  2 x honorable mentions.
