"Bridgend" follows Sara and her dad, Dave as they arrive in a small village in Bridgend County. The village is haunted by suicides amongst its young inhabitants, and Sara falls dangerously in love with one of the teenagers, Jamie while Dave as the towns new policeman tries to stop the mysterious chain of suicides. The film is an uncompromising story focused on the relationship between vulnerable teenagers and their parents who are left in the dark. The story of the film is based on a mysterious suicide cluster that took place in Bridgend County, a small former coal-mining province in Wales. Between December 2007 and January 2012 seventy-nine suicides were officially committed in the area. Most of the victims were teenagers, they hanged themselves and left no suicide notes. Danish documentary filmmaker Jeppe Rønde followed the teenagers from the area for six years and wrote the script based on their life stories. Bridgend is Røndes fiction film debut. It is entirely shot on location in Wales, with many of the local teenagers casted as actors.
Against the backdrop of a mysterious, blood-chilling spate of suicides, grieving police officer Dave and his teenage daughter Sara arrive in the Welsh former coal-mining community in Bridgend County. As Dave struggles to understand and shed light on the puzzling case, more and more, Sara becomes a part of the local youth scene, drifting further and further away from her father. Is unsuspecting Sara in grave danger?
