Kill the Day

Synopsis

A fictional portrait based on the accounts of an ex-addict.





'Everything around about you blocks the feeling that you're good out. I can fit in here. I can steal. I can live that life. I can go and steal every day, go and take junk every day, it's easy 'cause I've done it for years. It's the stepping out of that and doing something different that's frightening'.
