A man stops suicides for a decade. What happens when he finally lets someone jump?
Gilbert, an alcoholic old man, has been living on a cliff saving people from committing suicide for the past 10 years. When Alan, a troubled young man tries to kill himself, Gilbert is faced with the reality of the human condition: some people just want, and maybe have the right, to die. And it's not his fault.
