About the Film:

A raw exploration of what it means to be in recovery as seen through the eyes of four women whose lives share a common thread: addiction, in Worcester, Massachusetts. In this portrait of resilience, grit, and camaraderie, the women use their lived experience to lift up those still struggling while refusing to give up hope. Click here to learn more.
