Standing Tall (4EB)

From 4EB in Brisbane, Anisa Hobaya shows us how the
subject of height discrimination often falls short of including
the stories of incredibly tall people.


Supervising production from Celeste Macintosh. Training from the
Community Media Training Organisation. Distributed by the
Community Radio Network.


Produced for the 2021 CBAA National Features and Documentary
Series.


We might think it’s an innocent joke but when you really think
about it, what are people of extraordinary height going through
in their day-to-day life? 


After hearing a story from a tall friend about some extreme
prejudice she experienced growing up, Anisa Hobaya decided to
explore the height stereotypes and challenges tall women
face.  


Listen to Standing Tall for a jaw-dropping story and insight into
the lives of tall women.
