New Zealand has the second worst youth (25 and under) suicide rate in the developed world and the worst teen (15-19) suicide rate. The annual rates have remained largely unchanged for around two decades.
The New Zealand Herald ran a series called Break the Silence to tackle the issue.
What Becomes of the Broken-Hearted was the project to kick the series off. Mike produced the imagery and edited the video content for this stand-alone project and most of the full series.
