Docu About Teen Suicide Epidemic

The film was directed by Al Hicks, the Australian Grammy-winning director of the music docus, Keep On Keepin On and Quincy.

My Sister Live, a powerful film about the struggles of one young woman from Boulder, Colorado, Liv Kunik, that also speaks to the larger teen suicide epidemic in America and the rest of the world.

The film is produced by Paula DuPré Pesmen, whose past credits include the Oscar-winning doc The Cove and three of the Harry Potter films.

It had its world premiere at July’s Karlovy Vary Film Festival, and will have its U.S. premiere at this month’s DOC NYC festival. It is still seeking U.S. distribution.

The film features Hicks, Honey Beuf, Liv’s mother, Tess Kunik, Liv’s older sister, who currently run The Liv Project, as well as Susan Caso, one of several licensed therapists consulted during the making of the film.
