Though the script speaks mostly about Bonnie's life and intensifying depression, the impact of her suicide on her two daughters is the focus of the documentary. Making the film was clearly an act of catharsis, as she seeks to understand the legacy left to her, to explore possible genetic causes, to re-learn to love her mother, and to accept that her mother did indeed love her. Survivors of suicide and those souls contemplating suicide will find perspectives and empathy not normally provided by the media. Other viewers will learn intimately that depression is a disease that can be fatal. R.E.M. It is also available on video .
