The Handbook of Suicide Prevention

About This Movie

The Handbook of Suicide Prevention dives deep into the raw emotions surrounding loss.

The three students, with their camera in hand, become conduits for a range of expressions—from sorrow to hope. The interviews they conduct reveal layers of vulnerability, capturing the struggles that resonate with many. The practical effects are minimal, but the performances are strikingly real; you can feel the tension and heartache in every frame. The atmosphere is heavy, almost tangible, yet it aims to shine a light on the importance of life and connection. It's a film that lingers with you long after it's over.
