WHAT :: 'The Bridge' by Eric Steel (2006)

Hello everyone!

We would like to invite you all to the film screening of the controversial and much talked about documentary 'The Bridge' by Eric Steel, the second in a series selected by our wonderful guest host Dave Aldridge. On reflection, we have decided to have this month's series based around documentary film.

"The Golden Gate Bridge is the top suicide destination in the world. I made the documentary The Bridge in 2004, by putting cameras on the bridge capturing two dozen suicides and many attempts. By looking at one of society's gravest taboos, I hoped to shine light on the darkest moments in a person's life. In 2001, I saw people make the choice to jump from the World Trade Centre towers rather than perish in the flames. I had seen people leap to their death, but one can't ever prepare to see the end of a human life. The film asks why the Golden Gate Bridge is the top suicide destination in the world because of its beauty, it's easy-to-climb-over 4ft rail, its lack of safeguards, it's high foot traffic, and its guaranteed death."

Inspired by an article written by Tad Friend 'Jumpers', Steel decided to film the most popular suicide location in the world. Without telling anyone what he was actually trying to capture on film, for fear or influencing potential suicides into immortalising themselves on camera; Steel has produced an undeniably controversial yet poignant reality of suicide. With interviews with the friends, families and someone who survived a suicide attempt from the bridge, this documentary is truly thought-provoking and is not to be missed.
