SUAS Film Night is proud to take a risk this week, and show a controversial documentary that observes - at heart stopping proximity - the draw of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge as a destination for those seeking to end their lives. Be aware that this film contains scenes that you may find disturbing.
