| | Synopsis
|
"The Mask You Live In follows boys and young men as they struggle to
stay true to themselves while negotiating America's narrow definition
of masculinity. Pressured by the media, their peer group, and even the
adults in their lives, our protagonists confront messages encouraging
them to disconnect from their emotions, devalue authentic friendships,
objectify and degrade women, and resolve conflicts through violence.
These gender stereotypes interconnect with race, class and
circumstance, creating a maze of identity issues boys and young men
must navigate to become 'real' men. Experts in neuroscience,
psychology, sociology, sports, education, and media also weigh in,
offering empirical evidence of the 'boy crisis' and tactics to combat
it. The Mask You Live In ultimately illustrates how we, as a society,
can raise a healthier generation of boys and young
men"—Representation Project website. (90 min.).
