A six-part anthology series in which men reveal themselves. Six writers were commissioned to write about something which each know to be absolutely truthful and heartfelt and to lay his emotions bare. The result is a series which is emotional, surprising, sometimes funny, and subjective, a celebration of modern men's real lives with all their complexities. It is a chance for men to make unmediated expressions of their private worlds—a true insight into what it means to be a Man.
