Rating: 5.0/5 (1 vote cast)

Dominik is an ordinary boy. He's got loads of friends, the hottest girl in school, rich parents and money to spend on brand-name clothes. But one innocent kiss with a mate changes everything. He begins to isolate himself from the outside world, spending all his time on his computer. He meets an anonymous girl who introduces him to the "suicide room", a place from which there is no escape. Caught in a trap woven of his own emotions, Dominik becomes entangled in a web of intrigue and gradually loses what he cherishes most.
Why It's FilmBuff
Always seeking relevant topics that help explain our world, we find Suicide Room to be a compelling and unique look at the issue of high school bullying. In the United States, we tend to see this topic as a very American problem; however, Suicide Room gives us the opportunity to look at the way another culture sees the issue. The honesty resonates by taking such a raw glimpse into teenage life and how they use technology to share their experiences.
