On Suicide

Za samoubiistvoto, Bulgaria, 2005, 57 min, DV, Society, Youth Documentary
An in-deph research on the phenomenon of suicide. A through, yet emotional analysis of the problem's threateningly increasing frequency in Bulgaria and worldwide. The film puts up an alert that we have never heard so far, anywhere. Suicide is an increasing threat and its reason is rooted very deep in the spiritual foundations of modern mankind. Nowadays it is a life destroying force much more powerful and efficient than homicide both quantitatively (the number of suicides exceeds almost by two that of murders), and qualitatively (as it threatens life from deep within rather than from the outside). On Suicide's mission is to raise scary, essential questions that very few people dare ask themselves. Questions that would help each person in need to reach the core of the problem within themselves and to find the right personal solution...The film's subject matter is also a good pretext to take a general shot on the current spiritual state of mankind.
