When Today Ends

If someone post suicide video, homeland security will take it down for sure. So this movie is quite untrue for first disclaimer but the story of why those suicide is concrete. Good for parents to watch this though.

The fragility of youth is on display in this gut wrenching film. The character of Jenna Ross is a standout with a nuanced performance played skillfully through the actress's eyes. The subject matter is heavy, and while you might feel tempted to want to share with younger audiences to make them feel seen, I think the content is best viewed by adults. As an adult viewer (in my case) too old to be familiar with the added pressures of social media in high school, I found the film enlightening. What seems innocuous as an adult onlooker feels like a crushing weight to teenagers riddled with hormones. The film styling, from the point of view of social media postings, is different and pulls the curtain back on what we all know to be curated content while still eliciting compassion for the poster. Worth a watch if just to remind us that we never know what another person is experiencing, so be kind.

A really important film that brings teenage depression and suicide front and center, something that is so often overlooked or not recognized. Stylistically shot with diverse characters that you are sure to connect with. This indie film is a must see!

There is a lot of talk today about life. This movie is about real-life

This movie is a visceral look at a subject not often talked about.

Many young people are dealing with things we can't even imagine or choose not to pay attention to.

This movie forces you to look and to pay attention.

The movie takes you inside the lives of these young people and leaves you with an unforgettable sense of their pain and suffering.

This is an important film not just for teens but also for everyone in their lives especially those they love.

This movie can be a shared experience that can act as a springboard for important conversations and greater connection.

That shows the effects of bullying and self loathing and what it's like to live in pain and show the true signs of needing help are often hidden. It also shows how many ask for help but get none. This movie is gold and think everyone who lived pain or caused it should watch to either see your not alone and for those who caused pain to show how deeply their words, actions, hate, bullying and violence affect people scaring them forever or leading to suicide. If anyone seems to need help reach out to them and be there for them can make a world of difference... even if you don't know them every act of kindness can make a world of difference.
