Jamie Boyle (Dir), 94 minutes, USA, Western New York Premiere
In this work of reflexive nonfiction, a young woman turns to the camera for refuge, and ends up with a firsthand account of what will become the deadliest man-made epidemic in United States history. Thirty years in the making, Emmy Award®-winning director Jamie Boyle's chronicle of her family's fall into opioid addiction, is a poignant and timely study of what it means to experience life in all of its beauty and pain.
