See this movie even in you have no interest in understanding addiction or psychedelics
I was inspired, moved, touched and humbled by this movie. This is at the core a movie about the bravery of one woman's journey to face her demons and her will to live. She is truly brave. As are the filmmakers who took the risk to start with a story that they knew could have a tragic ending but followed Adriene one tear, cry, vomit, smile and laugh at a time.
By the way the film is also a grounded exploration of the proper, grounded and professional (mostly) use of the ancient plant medicines as well as a critique of western medicines unhelpful and at times unkind and ignorant approach to trauma and the mental health costs that arise from trauma.
This is one of those documentaries that's actually going to change the world.
Went to the world premiere of this documentary in Denver and was amazed at how brutally honest it was about dealing with addiction and how this country keeps pushing maintenance drugs as opposed to actually dealing with the pain that causes these addictions. Lot's of documentaries will show the gritty side of life but this one also showed the beauty of hope as Adrienne begins to deal with her problems. With the proper use of Psilocybin and Ibogaine the odds of beating the addiction goes up dramatically. If you or anyone you love is battling their drug habits please watch this film.

One of the most important documentaries of our time
This film documents an addict's journey from rock bottom to early recovery using primarily Psilocybin mushrooms and Ibogane therapies. These plant medicines have been used for healing by indigenous cultures for thousands of years, but the West is slowly waking up to the transformational potential of these substances. 20 years ago these substances were considered drugs. Now, as this documentary shows, they are being reclassified as medicines.
This documentary is so well done. I applaud the creators in their courage to tell this story and lead the charge in changing the public narrative around addiction and addiction recovery. I also applaud the woman in the film and thank her for her willingness to have her deeply personal experience be shown on the big screen.

i'm a supporter of MAPS...
As a donor and supporter of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), I believe in their important mission. While their recent documentary is informative, it falls short IMHO. The film's focus on one individual dominates the narrative, and the filmmakers' close ties to the subject raise concerns about objectivity. It's likely that certain facts were omitted to fit the desired storyline.
Despite these biases, the documentary highlights a significant issue: the general public's lack of knowledge about scheduled drugs. MAPS should be commended for their efforts in shedding light on this topic. Moving forward, I hope that their future projects will demonstrate greater journalistic integrity and a commitment to unbiased storytelling. With more solid storytelling, MAPS can continue to educate audiences about important issues surrounding drugs and their regulation.

Truly inspiring, life changing, breakthrough
Great depiction of a real world crisis. Gives many hope and inspiring for all. Realistically portrays the truth about mental illness and the truth that many are running from. Plant medicine is no joke and is the very reason that alot of people have a second chance at life. Iboga gives people the opportunity to look within rather then to look at, to face the truth rather then hide, to make peace not just dwell. This gives the insight that people can stop consistently falling down and walk the path of life comfortably. Iboga is the real deal and I am speaking from self experience as it has gave me the opportunity to live life and love myself again. These guys are truly professional and mean the world to me Great movie guys!!
