The Bridge

Late August. The summer before senior year. Four teens venture out to Old Alton Bridge, more infamously known as Goatman’s Bridge, for one last adventure-filled hangout before school starts and the college applications grind begins. However, as the teens immerse themselves into the haunted history of the bridge, secrets surrounding the tragic end of their junior year come to light and threaten to shatter the friend group for good. The Bridge is a coming-of-age story that unpacks how grief can bring out our ugly side, yet true beauty can be found in how persevere through it.
