Elisa Otter grew up in central Vermont, spending playing sports, exploring trails, and learning through hands-on experiences outdoors. That curiosity eventually led her into education, where she spent 10 years teaching kindergarten through 2nd grade and running a K–5 afterschool program. She also spent 5 years working in a bike shop developing strong mechanical skills and helping riders better understand their bikes. To learn more visit https://www.otterbikeworks.com/

Over the past fifty years, boys and young men have steadily disengaged from school, work, and broader society. They’re falling behind academically, struggling with loneliness and isolation, and facing rising rates of substance abuse and suicide.
Gone Guys, a 45-minute documentary, draws on the influential work of Richard V. Reeves’ Of Boys and Men, illuminating these challenges through powerful data and compelling personal stories. Many of us have experienced these issues first-hand, but it can be difficult to talk about them. It’s not an either-or choice: caring more about boys and men does not mean caring less about women and girls.
Set in rural Vermont, the film brings national data to life with engaging animation accompanying lived experience featuring young men, educators, mentors, and trailblazing programs that are working to re-engage boys and young men in their communities and reshape their futures.
