CGiii Comment

Everyday, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender teenagers suffer from identity crisis and feel lost in communities that don't accept them. Every 100 minutes another teenager will commit suicide in America. Because they are often the victims of bullying, queer youth are at higher risk-- up to four times more likely than their heterosexual peers to attempt suicide.

LIFELINE tells one story with a thousand faces - of a lonely teenager's journey through the dangerous landscape of isolation, rejection and threat. It's the story of some who took drastic measures in their loneliness, and of others who survived and are reaching back to make sure that more aren't lost.
