Sara, Francheska and Leraynha created short documentaries about something they learned during the COVID-19 pandemic.
(upbeat music) - The society just basically tells us that a family is supposed to be something that should always have happiness and should be secluded to a few number of people and that you should only trust your family.
You shouldn't really consider everyone in your family that you trust or that you love.
It's something that you should be privileged to have, it's like, you're privileged to have this family, so you should accept it no matter what.
But that's not what we should do.
It should be that, whoever accepts you the most, and actually loves you for who you are without having to change you is a family.
You shouldn't consider everyone your family just 'cause you're blood-related.
Whoever you think is your family, you should think of them as your family and just be happy about it.
It doesn't matter what other people think.
