On this episode we're back on the festival circuit as Executive Producer Patty Jenkins introduces audiences to something with a grit underneath it's fingernails that makes us sad one minute and rolling in the aisles the next. It's time for 'Junkie'.
It's the story of Stevie (played by real life recovering addict Rocky Shay) who is just a perpetual screw-up on all kinds of levels. She's escaped from rehab (again) and is trying to repay her debts while reconnecting with her estranged gay son Liam before skipping town for good. It's the kind of emotional rollercoaster that is hard to look away from as we see flashes of redemption for Stevie along side the ever looming train wreck that has been her life up to this date.
We had the unique pleasure of sitting down with writer/director William Means and star Rocky Shay about the origins of it all and getting an award winning talent like Patty Jenkins involved with the project.
