Description
Social media can skew our view of the relationships around us and, in some cases, influence our decisions to stay in unhealthy ones. Behind the Post is an 8-minute film that follows a young couple, Zoe and Will, who seem like they’re “relationship goals.” But if you look further than their Instagram photos, you’ll see that they are actually stuck in an abusive relationship. We’ll watch the film and then discuss the unhealthy behaviors we saw - plus some signs of a healthy relationship that we should look for in real life.
Content Warning: This film depicts examples of relationship abuse. It can be hard to watch even if you have not experienced abuse. Please feel free to step away, turn your camera off, or use other ways to care of yourself. We will hand out a resource list including organizations that you can reach out to for help.
