Yukio Shige is a retired Japanese police detective with a huge self-imposed burden: to patrol the Tojinbo Cliffs to stop people from jumping to their deaths.
He talks individuals away from the steep drop and takes them to a cafe, working with volunteers to help these individuals seek mental help.
Gatekeeper is a remarkable and intimate 39-minute documentary that follows Shige as he monitors the sheer cliffs, which have become a notoriously popular destination for suicides in Japan.
So far, he’s saved over 500 people.
Still, it’s a massive undertaking with societal challenges: Japan has one of the highest suicide rates of any developed country.
An average of 70 people kill themselves every day.

One reason for so many attempts at self termination in Japan is because of the physiological impact of so many people living like rats in cages.
In studies with rats living in very close proximity to one another they tended to become very uncivil and a type of madness sets in.
You can't stuff people so close together in such small quarters and not expect trouble.
More of the same is happening all across America in the major cities because of the UN Agenda 21.
"Stack em and Rack em's" are being built all over the place, small compact living spaces.
Hopefully we will not see the self termination affect of condensing people's living spaces that Japan is noted for.
Big Pharma likes it because they will see psychotropic drug sales increase and the other fields of mental heath will see an increase in their bottom line.
Share holders remain content.
The population control crowd sees just another method of causing decreasing population numbers by making the conditions just right for what we have been seeing happen in Japan.
Meanwhile income increases per square foot of land space for property owners when higher density is allowed in the three or four stories of buildout.
The day of the single family home with a large lot has come to an end.
Get up to speed on all of this.
