AFTER | A documentary short about suicide bereavement – https://vimeo.com/30819671
In 2002, filmmaker Jesse Feigelman took his life. Nine years later, Bill and Beverly, Jesse’s parents, reflect on the past and struggle to reconcile what they thought might have been, with their reality. After explores the unique experience of suicide loss and the interminable reverberations left in its wake.
“Above all else, the film is compelling. What’s moving to me is that it contains visuals worth all the other words in the film. Jeremy Cohan has turned out an extremely good effort.”
– Ira Wohl, director of BEST BOY, Academy Award Best Documentary Winner
