THE GIRL ON THE BRIDGE is a feature documentary directed by award winning New Zealand filmmaker Leanne Pooley. 

The subject of the film is Jazz Thornton and we first meet her just as she's turning 22. She's already founded her own charity and is a mental health advocate fighting to change the assumptions and judgments we all make about people struggling with mental illness. Jazz is s survivor of multiple suicide attempts and part of her power comes from that experience. But at the time the film starts Jazz has a particular mission, she wants to tell the story of her friend Jess who she lost to suicide . Jazz promised Jess she would tell her story one day and The Girl On The Bridge follows her as she fulfils that promise and creates a series called Jessica’s Tree.

Filmed over a two year period, The Girl On The Bridge observes Jazz as she puts Jess’s story together, navigating the same feelings of guilt and grief that anyone touched by suicide endures. She's also finding strength in her activism but her advocacy work makes her a lighthouse for young people and their families who turn to her in desperation asking her to "save" them. As she juggles the pressure of their expectations and her drive to make change, we're offered a rare and personal insight into the cost of advocacy.

This is the story of a young woman with the weight of a generation on her shoulders who is determined to force change. This is a film about hope. It’s a story about redemption. The Girl On The Bridge is a challenge to all of us to try to understand.

The sound Brian “Head” Welch helped pioneer with KoRn in the early ‘90s provided identity to a generation of misfits and made him a global rock star. Famous, wealthy, and worshipped in the spotlight, an adolescent self-loathing relentlessly haunted him in the shadows – until the day a tiny miracle was born. By the time he walked out on a $23M record deal in 2005, desperate to kick a devastating crystal meth habit, all he wanted was to become a good father.

LOUD KRAZY LOVE details the harrowing journey of Brian and his daughter Jennea growing up together with chaotic courage and unconventional faith. Far beyond a rock doc, this fearless coming-of-age story grapples with teenage depression, the quest for identity, and the hope of a father willing to do anything for the one he loves.

At the downbeat of the new millennium there was no bigger, darker, or more deeply influential hard rock band in the world than KoRn. But for lead guitarist Brian Head Welch, a dream come true was giving way to a raging nightmare of self-loathing and addiction. Solely responsible for his grade school daughter, and managing a vicious relationship with crystal meth, Brian sought solace in the one place he never thought he could belong. Church. Armed with an addict's zeal, he walked away from a $23M record deal to launch himself into single-fatherhood and religion with equal abandon. But years of anger and self-abuse led Brian and his daughter to a dangerous crossroads. Suicidal, and cutting herself from arm to arm, Jennea Welch needed an intervention, and Brian needed a major dose of courage. At the end of himself, he made an even harder decision than leaving KoRn. Told with intimate access to the family and band, this genre-bending documentary delivers unprecedented access to one of rock's most unbelievable stories of restoration.
