Just another film about the Golden Gate Bridge?

SAN FRANCISCO — For an entire year the cameras rolled, capturing death amid the eerie fog and shifting tides.

One by one, filmmaker Eric Steel documented the final moments of nearly two dozen despondent men and women, and the agonizing, four-second fall after they leaped off the Golden Gate Bridge, drawn by the span's tragic beauty.

His intent, he says, was to illuminate "the darkest corner of the human mind." If he watched enough people take their own lives, he thought, he could "spot the outward manifestations of their interior demons."


I'm not quite sure what to think... Here's the entire article.

It goes on to say that the guy did some interviews of some family members without telling them he also had footage of the suicides of their relatives... All around just a creepy concept.
