The Outliers is a gritty, unapologetic look at youth from minority backgrounds in New Zealand. From great adversity comes great strength, so the aim of The Outliers is to search out youth who are the standout, the anomaly, or the outlier in their community.

We meet inspirational youth while also exploring the source of most minority success: the community where they come from!
