Description
A silent “epidemic” affecting an increasing number of young people, self-harm, is brought into the light through the new film for the Greek Ministry of Health in collaboration with UNICEF, as part of the National Initiative for the Promotion of Child and Family Health. Teenagers and young adults often resort to razors, knives, compasses or even fire to hurt themselves. The film draws inspiration from these real incidents, but subverts them; the marks we see don’t cut into skin, but into everyday surfaces around us. Through this inversion, the film manages to create a powerful impact without showing graphic imagery and highlights its urgent message: 1 in 6 teenagers and young people in Greece self-harm.
