PUBLIC SCREENING SUNDAY, JANUARY 10, 2 PM AT THE TRENTON VILLAGE THEATRE, 2447 W. JEFFERSON, TRENTON.
THE MASK YOU LIVE IN is a moving, often intense look at how boys grow up to be “men” -- and what it means to be masculine and manly in today’s society. The traditional concept of strong, tough men is the product of a culture that tells boys they can’t cry, can’t be “sissies,” and must always show an impenetrable exterior to the outside world. The result is that many boys and young men struggle to stay true to themselves as they try to fit the prescribed, macho image.
The ultimate message is one of hope; if kids can be raised to reject outdated/limiting roles, we can all help boys forge new identities as men, husbands, friends, and fathers. Recommended for those 15 years of age and above--young men, parents, teachers, mentors and coaches.
