Boy Interrupted (2008)

on Amazon

On the night of October 2, 2005, Hart and Dana Perry's 15-year-old son Evan jumped to his death from his New York City bedroom window. This moving film is the story, told by his parents and others who knew him, of Evan's life and death, and his life-long struggle with bipolar disorder. In showing how one family deals with generations of loss and grief, the film is an attempt to defy the stigma related to mental illness and suicide.

Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it is a moving call to end the stigma that surrounds suicide. It is a tribute to a very young man who died far too soon - and a family who did all they could to save him. This film is a top pick of the editorial team at Give InKind.

What To Express In Your Card: I wonder whether, when you are ready, we could take a look at this movie together. I can't imagine the pain you are in, but I do want to hear about how you are processing and grieving. I am here for you and send my love.
