In the USA suicide is far more common than homicide, someone taking their own life every eighteen minutes, with the iconic Golden Gate Bridge confirmed as the most popular suicide destination in the world. Inspired by an article written by Tad Friend of the New Yorker, entitled 'The Fatal Grandeur of the Golden Gate Bridge', Steel and his crew watched the bridge for all of 2004, filmed most of the 24 deaths, prevented several others and recorded the suffering and desperation of so many of the jumpers. A fascinating and poignant observation marred by the slightly uneasy feeling of voyeurism that Steel's slightly tabloid footage does little to alleviate.
