Life Is An Inner 'Obstacle Course' For LGBT People

Let love rule. Inter-LGBT and TBWA\Paris created an online video to raise awareness that LGBTphobia is still present, and a rough journey for LGBT folks to travel. The 2:15 video puts the viewer in the role of of an LGBT person, whose identity is never revealed. This person has been suffering and running through an "Obstacle Course" of emotions and negative events starting at a young age. Torment begins in school and moves through teenage years, family life, looking for a job, and the desire to express their love, have a family and not be judged. This person is maneuvering through a never-ending obstacle course of closed doors, disappointed parents and muddy terrain. It's hard to watch. Ben Briand of Moonwalk Films directed the video.
