What Will I Become?
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, more than half of trans boys attempt suicide. Directors Lexie Bean and Logan Rozos explore the vulnerability of their transmasculine community. They delve into their own personal experiences, intertwining them with the stories of two young trans men who died by suicide. Homecoming king Blake Brockington and soft-spoken Kyler Prescott were poets, musicians and community advocates. The film traces their joys and challenges, their tragic deaths and resulting media attention, as well as the larger aftermath within their communities. The film also uplifts resources that affirm trans boys and the LGBTQIA2S+ community to provide an understanding of suicide-prevention practices. What Will I Become? asks why people from the transmasculine community are particularly vulnerable to living briefly and dying quietly.
