Dispelling the shame of Addiction
Manage episode 435465774 series 3455295
Christian Buxton's latest documentary My Name is Jack delves deeply into the life of Jack, a once-successful anesthetist whose struggle with drug addiction almost cost him everything. The film explores Jack's battle behind closed doors, exposing the harrowing personal realities of addiction, even for those who seemingly have it all. The story is especially poignant for Buxton, as it reflects his own experience of dealing with addiction within his family, which has driven his passion for shedding light on these issues through film. Buxton’s intimate connection to the subject matter gives the documentary an added layer of authenticity, as he navigates the emotional landscape of addiction recovery, both from the perspective of a filmmaker and a family member who has lived through the pain and resilience that comes with supporting a loved one (Melbourne Documentary Film Festival) (Emotive Storytelling).
