Programm "Jukai" (Adam Christopher Seward, dir.)
The initial inspiration for Jukai was The Aokigahara, or Kuroi Jukai forest in Japan, which translates to "Black Sea of Trees" or "Suicide Forest". "Kuroi Jukai" is also a Japanese novel written in 1960 about a young lover who travels to the forest to end his life. Since then, hundreds have traveled to the forest - which sits at the base of mount Fuji - to meet the same fate. It has since become one of the most popular places on Earth to commit suicide. Second only to the golden gate bridge.
