A moving and wide-ranging documentary, presenter Dr Xand van Tullekan discusses his own mental health, and uses himself as an example of how suicidal thoughts can be concealed behind the most funny and seemingly happy exteriors. He also finds that there's not one factor like mental health or isolation that can explain away suicide.

In one poignant moment, he describes how his brother will occasionally call him to ask (semi-jokingly): "You're not gong to kill yourself, are you?"

The presenter also gathers a wide range of testimonies from men who've been affected by suicide, including Kevin Hines, one of roughly 30 people to ever survive a suicide attempt at San Fransisco's Golden Gate Bridge in the US, and British man who attempted to hang himself not long after his best friend died by suicide.
