Four female directors meet the Cerchio degli Uomini (Man Circle) in Turin, an association that for twenty years has focused on transforming masculinity through sharing circles and overcoming patriarchal and misogynistic models. Walking between individual and cultural approaches, anger and relief, fifteen participants sit in a circle to share questions and answers about masculinity and its transformation, seeking new practices and words to address men who have been sons and who will one day be fathers, friends, and partners.
