With all episodes being released on TVNZ On Demand at the same time, you’ll be able to ‘binge-watch’ as you please.
This season will focus more towards the prevention of bullying and will share a diverse range of stories including that of fashion design student and fierce drag queen, Andrew Abrau, who was shunned by his family and church for coming out as gay. He received support from many friends within the LGBTI communities to prevent suicidal tendencies from clouding his mind.
In sharing his story, Abrau unveils that ‘reaching out’ for help was the only thing that saved him.
“After receiving supportive reach online,” say the series creators, “we sought out to obtain more stories about our modern-day youth and what their opinions are on bullying and suicide, within NZ. Since cyber-bullying became, how has our generation attempted to combat this issue?”
