Authentic Representation of the SMART 4-Point Recovery Prorgrsm

I love this short film! Very tastefully done and models the tools of SMART 4-Point Recovery program being put into practice with positive effect outside of the meetings of SMART Recovery. AUTHENTICS is a 25-minute film that was shot in 4½ days 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 who gently introduces her to the principles of SMART Recovery. He inspires her to change and, in the process, he changes too.

The film was written and directed by DANIEL STINE of RISING ACT FILMS and made possible by the generous support of the CHRIS & DEBBIE SWAIN FOUNDATION. This film contains brief sequences of alcohol/drug use. Viewer discretion is advised.

Live the film by joining us every Sunday night at 7 pm CT (8 pm ET/5 pm PT) for the SMART 4-Point ZOOM Meeting that I facilitate... meeting #6873 out of Maple Grove, MN.
