Klein – 2017 USA 93 min Bay Area Premiere – Documentary \n\nThis powerful documentary explores one of the most feared and misunderstood topics in the human experience – suicide.  Putting a human face to the subject\, the film shares the stories of those with lived experience – people who have attempted to take their own lives and survived to tell their stories.  Capturing personal revelations and surprising moments of humor\, The S Word opens a door on this most taboo of subjects through the eyes of the people who have been there and are now committed to preventing others from getting to that edge. –  Chris Metzler

SUMMARY:HOLDEN ON
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS for HOLDEN ON at Roxie Sun Feb 4\, 7p HERE\nTICKETS for HOLDEN ON at Roxie Tue Feb 6 915p HERE\n  \nDirector Tamlin Hall – 2017 USA 101 min Bay Area Premiere – Drama / Youth \n  \nNo longer your average boy-next-door\, Holden Layfield weaves audiences through his harrowing tale in this film set in the early 1990s. After succumbing to a secret battle with mental illness\, Holden evolves from a beloved\, small town Georgia football player to a lost\, self-medicating prophet. Based on a true story about dual diagnosis. – Jennifer Junkyard Morris \nDirector Statement \nI KNEW HOLDEN…\nBecause we grew up together in small-town Georgia. He was “that” guy everyone liked\, even teachers. He was friendly. He was cool. He accepted you for who you were\, not who you weren’t. Whether you were popular or not\, as in my case\, Holden treated everyone as a friend. As one of the “fat” kids growing up\, I was routinely bullied. Holden always looked past my stigma and treated me like an ally rather than an enemy. Looking back\, I’m sure you had a “Holden” at your school. So\, it was an utter shock that autumn afternoon my junior year when I found out Holden died by suicide. He was 19 years old. It wasn’t until I set out to write a paper about Holden in my psychology class senior year did I learn about the secret behind Holden’s smile. His facade masked a story that dealt with mental illness and self-medication. Ten years after that psychology class project\, I asked Bob & Brenda Layfield if I could write a screenplay about their son. They said yes. I am forever grateful. \nWe currently have an award-winning lm\, “Holden On\,” and a high school art initiative\, iAmHoldenOn\, that uses Holden’s humanity to spark social change. I believe we can use our voice through art to help discuss mental health and suicide. And I believe we can save some lives while we’re at it. Let’s be the ally. \nMy name is Tamlin Hall and #iAmHoldenOn

Now frontman Joe Cardamone is 36 and broke\, and the record companies won’t touch his new stuff. Plus\, he’s getting death threats by text. Cardamone and director Michael Grodner wrote the script and plays a thinly veiled version of himself in this No Wave-style noir about navigating the modern music biz\, co-starring fellow musicians Ariel Pink and Keith Morris (Circle Jerks). The screening will also feature a live musical performance by Joe Cardamone and Annie Hardy. – Chris Metzler
