In this bold new experimental documentary, four artists talk about suicide, the role the recurring thought has played in their life and art, the struggle to understand and overcome the impulse, and the ongoing attempt to confront the stigma of even discussing the very concept of suicide. With a frankness that is both bracing and illuminating, Sanguedolce’s subjects tell their stories, and the filmmaker responds with a striking visual scheme that permits us something rarely attempted in the engagement with this most misunderstood of conditions: a sense of first person understanding.
