| Recent figures show that more than 40 percent of LGBT people will
experience a significant mental health problem, compared to around 25
percent of the whole population, and that LGBT people are more than
twice as likely to have attempted suicide. In this eye-opening and
timely film, young pop culture icon Olly Alexander explores why the gay
community is more vulnerable to mental health issues, as he opens up
about his own long-term battles with depression.
As the outspoken
frontman of British band Years and Years - who have seen a phenomenal
rise to fame - Olly is a powerful voice on mental health, bullying and
LGBT rights. He has broken taboos with music videos that celebrate
queer identities and spoken openly about his own sexuality as well as
his ongoing struggles with anxiety. Olly joins young people on their
journeys battling issues that parallel his own - from homophobic
bullying to eating and anxiety disorders - and asks what can be done to
address them.
