It's the third leading cause of death among young people but few have any idea of its real impact. From Romeo and Juliet to Hunter S. Thompson, those who take their lives are glamorised in the media while those left behind forced to pick up the pieces. This week's documentary investigates its illusory appeal. By looking at one case in detail, it examines the intellectual attraction of suicide to the vulnerable and its catastrophic impact on the living.
