A discussion film about masculinity , communication and feelings, this video uses role plays to explore male sexuality, focussing on “mateship”, relationships, boys in the home environment and their behaviour towards girls. A number of short scenes are dramatised, and these are followed by a short discussion about issues raised by the dramas.
