The Bridge

The Bridge focuses on the large number of suicides that occur each year at the Golden Gate Bridge, capturing footage of the suicides and interviewing family members. Also interviewed are people who have attempted suicide at the bridge, witnesses of the suicides, and a jump survivor.
The movie was shot with multiple cameras pointed at a notorious suicide spot on the bridge during 2004. It captured 23 people as they took their final plunge, and then offers interviews with grieving families.
The most prominent suicide victim is that of Gene Sprague who is seen as a motif running throughout the entire film. Steel filmed him for 90 minutes as he walked up and down the bridge before he stood on the rail and fell backwards into the water.
