Shoulders Back, Head High: A 360°/VR Short Film about Marsha P Johnson and LGBT history by MBD

Shoulders Back, Head High is a 4 minute VR short-film celebrating the life and legacy of LGBT activist Marsha P Johnson. Recognised for her role during the 1969 Stonewall Riots, (a pivotal turning point in the fight for LGBT equality) Marsha P Johnson will forever be remembered as a passionate woman with a kind heart and flamboyant dress sense.

Marsha P Johnson's story isn’t only one that defines a decade or a generation; it’s one that will sit in the minds of everyone for eternity. Marsha, alongside all other members of the protests, paved the way for LGBT rights and equality and will forever be remembered as heroes.

The use of 360° and VR video, allows you to step into a world of colour and beauty, inspired by Marsha, to gain a new perspective on the progress made since the Stonewall Uprising, and the work that still needs to be done to help protect everyone in the LGBT community.
