MONIQUE MENESES

My final product is an informative law documentary that vividly depicts the devastating human rights abuses around the globe, while providing an in depth explanation of the rights each person is entitled to; More specifically those who are suffering under a threatening dictatorship, a violent communist regime, or even those escaping a widespread genocide.

 

Through my case study research this year, it has become evident that while it is important to manage the threat of the imposing government, it is also essential to inform the public of the rights they are entitled to as citizens, and as humans. I am hoping to create a product that both informs people of their human rights, while also spreading awareness about these drastic violations, that may have otherwise remained in the dark.

 

I have chosen to express this “break-down” of the law and human rights violations in a documentary, so that it can be globally accessed on a public platform (Youtube), while maintaining a visually appealing and interesting quality. My goal is to spread awareness for human rights violations, while offering those who are subject to government infringement, a thorough, yet comprehensible break down of the laws regarding their inherent rights as humans and as citizens.
