"Scrupulous and tenderly wounding— a drama that seizes and holds you."—Owen Gleiberman, Variety
This deeply moving portrait of a family’s unwavering love and commitment to each other in the face of their son’s addiction and his attempts at recovery follows a real life story based on the best-selling pair of memoirs from father and son David and Nic Sheff. As Nic (Timothée Chalamet) repeatedly relapses, the Sheff’s are faced with the harsh reality that addiction is a disease that does not discriminate and can hit any family at any time in a searingly honest account of the ways addiction can destroy lives and the power of love to rebuild them.
Content Warning: Depictions of substance use and overdose
