The Lifeline: Stories from the Crisis Hotline offers an intimate look at Toronto’s Distress Centre, where volunteers provide vital support to people at risk of suicide. The film follows Sophia, a volunteer with her own history of suicidal ideation, as she navigates the emotional challenges of the role. Featuring real-time responses to crisis calls and a poignant look at grief counselling through the eyes of Sandi, a mother who lost both her children to suicide, the film is a testament to the power of human connection in the face of despair.
