A film that explores the connection between trauma and addiction.
Silence, isolation, stigma and unaddressed trauma cultivates the environment for addiction. Through the use of personal stories and film, we will explore: the root causes of addiction, the transformational power of recovery, and how compassion, understanding and access to evidence based trauma treatment are more effective interventions than incarceration or exile.
This high quality, short film has been shown at multiple venues and remain as a permanent resource for people struggling with addictions, the treatment community and the general public.
