Heartbreaking as in making you feel very sad? I don't think I find the sentence coherent then, so I'll just translate literally:

Удивительно, как отсутствие слёз и присутствие улыбки может быть таким душераздирающим.

Yes, heartbreaking as in "sad".
How surprising it is, that those 2 situations can make someone so sad.
