‘Surviving Myself’ is a story about a drug addict, fresh off of a relapse, struggling to come to terms with his part in his lover’s fatal overdose. The characters in this story are based on real people, including the writer. Many of these people have not made it back into sobriety. This is a way to honor what addicts go through as they transition into recovery. If even one person can see this film and choose to live, then all of the pain we’ve endured will have been worth it.
“Looking inward to battle shame is a haunting process, but sometimes all we need to see is one person choose to survive. I believe in the power of film to help start the healing process of recovery.” - Juan Danner, writer ‘Surviving Myself’
