Publication 7, Week 7

How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?

My product challenges conventions because it is an issue in which is not portrayed enough in films. The social group that the film contains is of a gay couple. The humans that take part in the LGBTQ community deserve their rights, deserve peace, and deserve to be equally as integrated into films as everybody else is. In this generation, this topic is very important and popular. Meanwhile, there are only a handful of films that have included this social group. We have to shed light on their situations because they are humans as well and should not be shunned. It challenges conventions by including this social group. The normality of the world is to allow a woman and a man to be the stars of a film. Or have gay character, but make him or her very discrete. Humanity should be accepting or at least respectful towards the people taking part of this community, you do not have to encourage it or even watch films if it is still bothersome to your mentality but at least know they are humans and deserve the same as everyone else.
