This educational documentary clearly outlines the dangers of addiction; fentanyl is particularly addictive and dangerous. The viewer will have a better understanding of the types of drugs that are being used, how addiction affects family members and those responding to the concomitant medical emergencies that often arise from fentanyl use. Drug addiction need not be a death sentence, although for some families it was. There are many treatment modalities in place, but community involvement is needed to help break down barriers to, and the facilitation of, treatment. Addicts need help in their reintegration back into society. There are substantial cost savings related to recovery; the loss of human potential is a price too high to pay during this unprecedented drug crisis.
