00:00That collective, they'd never been out in Venice dressed up.
00:03They called the House of Serenissima.
00:04So lovely for them to open their doors to us.
00:07And for the first time, they'd been together a year,
00:09they said, we're going out in public.
00:10And they did.
00:11And we had a guy shout out something
00:13really homophobic and derogatory.
00:15A young guy.
00:16A young guy.
00:17As we walk along, there's like this group
00:18of like 90-year-old nonnas, and they all stood up and clapped us.
00:21And I'm like, that's what this experience is about.
00:24What we're sometimes frightened of,
00:26we always think it might be the older generation looking down.
00:29It wasn't for them.
00:30It was actually the opposite.
