Japan loses close to 30,000 people to suicide every year, one of the highest rates among wealthy nations, and this film follows an Irish filmmaker's attempt to find out why. He interviews close to a hundred people, authors, journalists, police officers, health care workers, and survivors touched by a family suicide, building a picture of the pressures involved: job loss, workplace culture, media reporting practices that some experts argue romanticize or trigger copycat deaths, and a mental health system that often fails to catch depression before it becomes lethal. The film was screened at the Japanese Parliament and folded into the government's 2013 suicide prevention campaign, and it treats the subject as something concrete enough to fight rather than a vague cultural mystery. Its case rests on specifics: a revised 50-category police system for classifying suicide motives, a 65 percent jump in job-loss suicides in one year, and the argument that reducing the taboo around discussing suicide is itself a measurable intervention. The film closes on practical proposals rather than despair.
