I watched this movie on Netflix and was really intrigued by its story. When the camera records that little town you can really feel that there is something evil in the air. The movie gave me chills. It is about a number of suicides that are taking place, since 2007, in the small town of Bridgend, South Wales. Also additional filming of families and friends of the deceased ones are captured. They are all trying to find out some conclusion of why it is happening.
The movie reminds me of one small place in the northern part of my country (Serbia) that is also infamous by the number of suicides. Contrary to beliefs, people there who decide to take their own lives are not coming from poor families, so material situation is not an issue. The same is with the town of Bridgend. Victims decide to end their lives by hanging, like it is some sort of a trend. All of them are in some way connected and were very young.
Director interviewed relatives and friends of the suicide victims to give us a deeper insight into this topic and offers some theories what is going on. Is it a strange suicide cult? A climate? Economic or environmental factors? In my opinion it is all of the mentioned. It's a complexity of various factors that make an impact on these unfortunate young people, who decide to commit suicides.
Director made a very spooky atmosphere in the movie, and what is most important made a tremendous research to shed a light on this mystery. All the info gathered is explained in a plain way. All interviews get us closer in understanding the victims and more sympathizing with their families and friends, who lost their loved ones.
I recommend this movie and give it a 9/10 grade !!
