Why do so many men struggle to show their feelings?

Part therapy, part road trip, BAFTA award-winning filmmaker Duncan Cowles asks men how they open up in order to directly address his own difficulties in being intimate and open with his loved ones.

With profound honesty and deadpan wit, Silent Men intertwines awkward conversations and the filmmaking process, asking what makes men tick, and more importantly, how to come to terms with all aspects of health, both physical and mental. Exploring aspects of masculinity that all too often are little discussed, this film opens the door for other ways of being, communicating and healing, as well as attempting to define masculinity.

Please be aware that this film contains sensitive content related to suicide and mental health.

There will be an exclusive Q&A with the director Duncan Cowles on Thu 21 November at 4pm. Audiences of both screenings are welcome.
