How can the medium of film be used to help people enhance their addiction recovery?

In this episode of Tattoos & Torah, Rabbi Iggy is joined by Alex Kaplan, founder of the innovative nonprofit “Of Substance” that creates premium short films focused on overcoming the shame, blame, and stigma of addiction. They explore the ways in which movies can activate vulnerability, help us engage in emotional learning, and allow us to interrogate our own personal narratives. By digging into our personal narratives and journey from different entry points, we can approach recovery in a meaningful, enduring way.
