SYNOPSIS

Our goal is to film 4-5 days of Standing Together’s trip in order to document key conversations, events, and some behind-the-scenes of traveling. The footage will be edited into several short videos that spread their message of peace and equality to a wider audience in the U.S. and abroad. We see video as an essential part of Standing Together’s work on the ground in the U.S., and an important tool for building their movement here and abroad.
