Hi All!
I wanted to share with you the trailer to a new film that I'm proud to be a part of. I'm currently serving as assistant to the director on a feature-length documentary following three transgendered immigrants from Mexico that are seeking political asylum in the United States due to emotional, physical and sexual abuses inflicted upon them in their home country. Today we released our trailer and began a fund-raising campaign. This is a truly important film that we hope can bring awareness to this group of women and others like them. You can view the trailer and read more about the film at the link below. I hope you'll help us spread word about the film and the cause.

Thanks, Ava! I'm looking forward to seeing and sharing the entire film.
Is it OK with you if I re-post your link and video in the DU LGBT Group?

(12,647 posts)It's been such a joy to watch you bloom over the years. Your work is so important and is what inspired me to learn how to make political videos as well. We all, every single progressive who pays attention to what's going on, plays the important role of messenger. I fully expect to see you one day, walking up those stairs and receiving an Oscar for Best Documentary. Keep up the great work!
