Full plot (spoilers)

Manhood is a 2026 documentary directed by Daniel Lombroso, shot over two years, that follows three men navigating the world of cosmetic penis enlargement. The central figure is Bill Moore, a Dallas entrepreneur on a mission to mainstream penile enhancement procedures—positioning them as routine as Botox injections—and the film tracks his business efforts toward that goal. Alongside Moore, a gay adult content creator (described elsewhere as an OnlyFans star) and a father of five each put their bodies on the line by undergoing or seriously considering the procedure, laying bare their physical insecurities and anxieties on camera. The documentary uses these personal stories as a lens to examine broader themes of shame, addiction, body image, and the 'fragile myths of American masculinity,' including the influence of the manosphere on men's mental health. The tone blends dark humor with unexpected empathy; critics noted the film treats its subjects with dignity and compassion rather than mockery, finding humanity in male self-esteem's fragility. The film premiered at SXSW on March 14, 2026, and later opened theatrically at IFC Center.
