Suicide touches many of our lives and yet our society has so much trouble understanding it, or even just talking about it. The S Word seeks to move the conversation forward by engaging with those coping with loss and grappling head on with suicide in all its complexity. Directed by Lisa Klein, who lost both her brother and father to suicide, and driven by survivor Dese'Rae Stage's mission to create a movement of greater understanding, The S Word is a deeply compassionate and courageous work of documentary filmmaking.
Join the conversation in a post-screening panel hosted by Rendez Vous with Madness Program Director Geoff Pevere with filmmakers, subjects, and experts.
