Why this pick
Like The Mask You Live In, this intimate documentary examines masculinity through emotional honesty and vulnerability, using a close observational style that makes entrenched masculine expectations feel immediate and personal.
Why this pick
From the same director, this is a natural thematic counterpart: it studies how media scripts gender expectations, complementing The Mask You Live In’s focus on the costs those scripts impose on boys.
Why this pick
It shares the original’s advocacy-minded, interview-led urgency and attention to the real-world consequences of gender norms, though its focus shifts to institutional failures around campus sexual assault.
