THE VOICES OF MEN

The Voices of Men is a short documentary that explores the topic of men’s mental health. In a world where men are often discouraged from expressing vulnerability, the film provides an unfiltered, raw look at their emotional experiences, with the aim of challenging the stigma surrounding male mental health and encouraging open conversation.

​​

Men were invited to send in anonymous audio recordings where they could share their personal mental health journeys, creating a safe and anonymous platform for them to speak freely. The decision to keep the voices anonymous was intentional, allowing participants to share their stories without the pressure of societal judgment or personal identification. This anonymity empowers the men to be fully honest in a way that might not otherwise be possible.

​

In the UK, men are three times more likely to die by suicide than women. These alarming statistics underscore the urgent need for change. The Voices of Men aims to highlight the invisible nature of mental health struggles and reminds viewers that anyone could be silently battling their own issues.
