Filmmaker Dennis Allen helms this documentary featuring five native Canadians including himself. All of them went on a downward spiral because of the consumption of alcohol and drugs, and are opening up about their struggles for the first time. When did the moment of realization hit them? How did they get sober? Go on an emotional journey, as they reveal their experiences, with pride rather than shame.
