Director's Statement
My grandfather died when I was 2 years old. He was my favorite person at the time. I asked my mom “Where did Papa go?” And she answered, “He smoked, and then he died.” I have always had a disgust for the act of smoking and really any drug use but thankfully it has given me a curiosity for why people would start a drug habit to begin with. Find out some interesting commonalities in the testimonies these total strangers give over in this short Doc.
