Not too long ago GLAAD blog readers were introduced to Hello Forever
<http://www.glaad.org/blog/isis-king-makes-her-acting-debut-hello-forever>
, a film starring transgender model and actress Isis King about
Filipina women trying to overcome obstacles and find a way out of
poverty. The filmmakers took to Kickstater in hopes to raise funds to
cover post-production costs and festival submission fees. With your
help they met their goal, and Isis shared her excitement on Twitter.

In Hello Forever award-winning director Peter Kirk tackles the
subjects of poverty, corruption and single motherhood and shines a
light on human trafficking and sexual exploitation by following four
women affected by it. In the film Isis, who was the first transgender
woman to appear on The CW's America's Next Top Model, plays Rommy, a
transgender Filipina woman.
