What killed Kevin?
Description
One summer morning, Kevin Morrissey, managing editor at the Virginia Quarterly Review, walked to an abandoned coal tower, then dialed 911 to report a shooting before turning his gun on himself. After hearing evidence of discord between Kevin and his boss, Kevin's sister Maria contacted the Workplace Bullying Institute and agreed to use Kevin's case to pursue protective legislation. Even before Kevin's death, filmmaker Beverly Peterson had been exploring workplace bullying, a condition which afflicts millions of Americans and can lead to severe anxiety, depression, and debilitating physical harm. After hearing of Kevin, Peterson traveled to Virginia to follow the story and developed a film that examines Kevin's case. What Killed Kevin? is a documentary that ultimately questions the nature of bullying itself.
