DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

“Addiction is an “unhealthy” bond between a person and something else. Whether you’re drawn to a substance, object, person, idea or feeling, addiction works the same way. Only the consequences change. It’s not to be said if it’s a bad or a good thing, it’s destructive as much as creative. We all capture glances of reality, some people use cameras and others don’t. Addiction is a mental state, something inside all of us. It altered our perception and created a parallel world of avant-garde beings and flashy lights making us part of this everlasting bond.”
