Authentics is a 25-minute film that was shot with professional actors in and around Atlanta. It centers around a young photographer struggling with addiction who books a job to shoot a wedding. She meets a man who is no stranger to addiction himself and who gently introduces her to the principles of SMART Recovery. He inspires her to change and, in the process, he changes too.
From the producer of the film, Daniel Stine:
“Everyone has been touched by addiction in some way or another. SMART Recovery not only reveals the light at the end of the tunnel for those struggling, but it provides them with tangible ways to get to that light. I hope this film not only captures a little bit of the SMART Recovery spirit, but I hope it introduces new people to what they are all about through the unique format of storytelling. With this film, we hope to be a little part of SMART Recovery’s continual growth.”

I saw the early screening for this and the movie was incredibly moving and well-done ... it is the most honest portrayal of addiction I have seen in a movie.
