An America film producer is in the country to capture the voice of the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender community.
Tim Wolff is with the American Film Showcase.
He arrived in the country this week and began shooting on Monday, October 23.
Wolff aims to shoot at least 20 hours of interview with members of the LGBT community over a period of 8 days.
He says this footage will be left behind in the country.
“Part of my work is to create archives of LGBT persons – I don’t edit, I leave behind hours and hours of interview that could be used by any network national/international, or anybody,” he said.
Wolff has been doing this for at least 4 years now.
“They (LGBT) are a primarily invisible minority in the country. And it’s a lonely thing to be an LGBT and be living in a community where you are invisible,” he added.
His first featured documentary – Sons of Tennesee Williams – was also shown at PNG Human Rights Film Festival, held from October 13-15.
Wolff continues to advocate for the rights of this minority with his products.
And to the population of PNG, he says: “We have brothers and sisters, cousins, aunt and uncle that need to feel loved from you.”
Wolff will be leaving on November 3.
