Wuttipong* lost his son to suicide last month. In order to come to terms with the grief, he visited the "Homecoming" at River City Bangkok and watched a documentary, called Mental-Verse, which interviewed five people experiencing mental health challenges.

"I had an opportunity to chat with a male visitor in his 60s. He told me that he was there to try to understand young people better. After having a long conversation, he cried and revealed his son had committed suicide last month. He confessed that he used to blame other people for his son's suicide," project director Nuntawat Jarusruangnil said of Wuttipong.
