The MisEducatioN of Gen Z
Показать описание
*** Finalist - 2018 Chicagoland High School Film Festival ***
The MisEducatioN of Gen Z is a short documentary that explores the multiple layers of masculinity and what it means to be a man in today’s society. It dives into the role expectations of a man, as well as what the responsibilities of these men are. We wanted to portray the difference between the younger generation and the older generation when it comes down to what makes a man a man. A lot of today’s media presents toxic masculinity as the way a man must live his life. Toxic masculinity states that men aren’t suppose to show the emotions that a woman would typically show. However, The MisEducatioN of Gen Z serves as an outlet for men to be able to share their true feelings about these traditional role expectations.
Created by Free Spirit Media youth at the Nichols Tower site in Chicago, IL in partnership with The Pulitzer Center For Crisis Reporting. Summer 2017.
