Be a Man

The plot

110 teenage boys from two regions of northern Namibia reflected on the pressure put by their communities, their schools, and their friends on their understanding of manhood. The result of their brainstorming was turned into a poem. Five prominent male figures (actors, models, singers) and two dancers were invited to read/ interpret the poem. ‘Be a man, as they say. It can’t be that difficult, can it?’. This short is the pendant to another poem, ‘Be a Lady’.
