Selfhood

'Selfhood' follows 5 individuals and how they present themselves socially, compared to their identity behind closed doors.

In this film, I consider the difference between our sense of self and how we present ourselves to the outside world. The film is divided into four narratives that address some of the issues facing young people today. In particular, the lives of young men are considered and how their outward expression of self might conflict with private anxieties over a sense of self-worth, gender identity and what kind of future might be possible in the present economic climate.
