Unable to honestly verbalize his problems, Michael (Himesh Patel) is searching for a way out of his spiralling depression. Retreating further into his shell, his girlfriend Katie (Maddy Hill) repeatedly implores him to adopt a more positive mindset to no avail. It’s not until his fractious relationship with a student, Archibald (Tom Sweet), comes to a head, that he’s finally able to see a reason to hope.

ENJOY is an offbeat exploration of masculinity, men’s mental health and how societal stereotypes surrounding depression in men manifest themselves across different generations.
