MAN UP! <\/strong>

What if you don't fit the standard gender roles? <\/strong>

In the multi-voiced documentary MAN UP! people from different generations talk about the roles they learn to play in order to hold their own in a society that wasn't made for them. They adapt, to expectations, to their surroundings, to an image of who they're supposed to be.

MAN UP! is a story about masculinity, being yourself, and playing a role, every single day.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n
