Breast Friends

It’s not about having the right body — it’s about having the balls to face what comes next.

The Synopsis

"He can paint a house with his eyes closed — but when he's diagnosed with breast cancer, Paul Fletcher has to learn how to open up"

A powerful drama exploring male breast cancer — a rarely told story  Set in Teesside with Northern humour and heart, it follows working-class decorator Paul Fletcher as he navigates an unexpected diagnosis and discovers the courage to let someone in.


 

"It’s hard enough to say the word ‘cancer’ — let alone ‘breast cancer’, as a bloke.”

 

.....This is where Breast Friends begins.

THE VISION

This is more than awareness — it's authentic, character-driven storytelling designed to open conversations men aren’t having.

Think: After Life meets The Full Monty meets This Is Going to Hurt.
