Understanding Addiction
The first film in our series of nine is an introduction to the concept of addiction, explaining the science behind it, presenting key words and featuring select moments from interviews with seven people who have each been exposed to a different type of addiction (each interview can be viewed in full as a separate film). It covers the original reasons that their addictions spiralled, the effects on the individuals and their loved ones, and how recovery saved their lives. The final film covers law.
