Summary

An original and compelling documentary depicting one father’s long-term struggle with heroin addiction told through the uniquely intimate perspective of his own son. After years of acrimony and estrangement, young filmmaker Phillip Wood seeks out his father to try and understand what’s happened to him. But his father is now seriously ill and over the next few months Phillip’s visits force both to confront some uncomfortable truths about their past. This documentary offers a strikingly stark exploration of a subject that significantly affected the filmmaker's childhood. An intimate, revealing documentary that shows addiction from a different side and challenges assumptions about how families can rebuild their broken relationships.
