A grieving father seeks answers after his 14-year-old son Ryan dies by suicide. He uncovers painful truths about the lives of teens, the impact of unfettered access to internet and social media, and the shocking rise of depression among America's youth. The journey brings him together with young suicide survivors, prevention experts, and parents trying to understand the 70% increase in adolescent suicide. Closer to home, with his family fractured, he examines his son's technology use to discover what no parent wants to find.

Robin G The weakest, most self absorbed and spoiled generation ever. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/24/25 Full Review Audience Member The way Ryan's sister smiles during her interview, the way she speaks of him, how she focuses on herself more than him makes me extremely uncomfortable. I understand people have different ways of coping but it's just bizarre to me. The interviewer also seems more into her story than Ryans. She just rubs me the wrong way. I'm heartbroken for his dad and I believe he loved and cared for his son so much. He should of made the movie himself though. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
