But I’m one of the lucky ones, because I’m still here. The dark descent into the nefarious underworld of heroin addiction is well documented, but the challenging and deeply personal world of recovery and hope is rarely seen. Part of the motivation for making this film came from a need to understand what dictates one’s chances of sobriety. Authentic and meaningful connection — with oneself, with others and with something outside of oneself. I’m still working on that last one, but I think I got somewhere close to it while making this film.
