Movies and TV are what unite people through pop culture, but can their portrayal of groups also be breaking us apart? I talk to Liz Loo about diversity in film and the changes that need to be made both on and off the camera to better tell the stories of all people. Proper diversity in film is a necessity, but when does pushing for diversity also become too much? What are the current standards in film that shape our stereotypes of the world?
