"The Mask You Live In" is a powerful documentary that delves into the lives of young boys and men in America, exploring the suffocating expectations of masculinity that society imposes upon them. Through personal stories and expert insights, the film exposes the harmful effects of this narrow definition of manhood, which can lead to behavioral disorders, substance abuse, and even suicide. By questioning these gender stereotypes and their interconnection with race, class, and circumstance, the documentary provides a thought-provoking reflection on what it means to be a man in today's society, and what we can do to create a healthier environment for our boys to grow and thrive.
