Summary:

This documentary portrait of three suicidal youngsters will help counselors, parents and young people begin a constructive dialogue. Anna was sixteen when she broke away from her family. Now at twenty, she remembers the events leading up to her overdose. Therapy and a network of friends have helped. Sherri came from an affluent background, but clearly something was missing. She made two attempts to end her life. Today she is beginning to see options. For Michael, getting help didn't work. When he killed himself at eighteen, his two closest friends were devastated. This film shows the importance of using all resources to help troubled youngsters.
