‘We don’t think the worst when younger. We just want fun, I’ve made mistakes and can’t change history, but I wish I could go back and do things differently.’

Addiction Road is a short film that highlights the issues caused by drug addictions. We follow the story of a young addict (Evan Emanuel) who starts out taking drugs without seeing the harm they can cause. He’s too busy feeling great and seeing how cool he is fitting into the crowd. Not only that the money he makes from dealing drugs helps him to pay for his hobbies and bills. However soon we see that it's not all great, the drug and alcohol addictions slowly start to deteriorate his life with his motivation and concentration. Getting arrested, getting involved with the wrong people, daily panic attacks, paranoia the list goes on and on. He was warned about all of this but it was too late the young addict had now entered Addiction Road.

The effects of the drug addictions had completely changed him to the point that he doesn’t recognise himself anymore. Even after 17 years he still suffers from the choices he made, it’s still a daily reminder of how something may have seemed great at first but soon turned into hell.

‘Be healthy and live your life, be addicted to that’
