According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, more than 50% of transgender boys attempt suicide. In What Will I Become?, directors Lexie Bean and Logan Rozos explore the vulnerability of their transmasculine+ community. They delve into their own personal experiences, intertwining 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, and the larger aftermath within their communities. The film also uplifts resources that affirm trans boys and the trans community as a whole to provide an understanding of suicide-prevention practices. What Will I Become? asks why the transmasculine community is particularly vulnerable to living briefly and dying quietly.
