This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Film is fundamentally an experience in empathy; it's about understanding others. For over a hundred years, Hollywood has trained us to believe that love belongs more frequently to certain people -- mainly white, able-bodied, heterosexual men, yet this is not reflective of reality. Film offers the world an opportunity to fundamentally expand our collective conception of love and to see ourselves in people who do not look like us.

At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event.
