LONDON: The father of British teenager Molly Russell, who took her own life after viewing pro-suicide content online, hopes a documentary about her death will inspire change.
The film — “Molly vs. the Machines” — about his 14-year-old daughter will “bring back some of the grief,” Ian Russell acknowledged.
He said it will highlight how the tragedy was not isolated, and “there’s a real hope that it will become part of a conversation that might help bring about change.”

The documentary, which premieres in British cinemas from March 1 and airs on the UK’s Channel 4 on March 5, recounts his quest to hold “digital systems designed for profit” accountable for his loss, according to Russell.
