Drunks

Based on the play “Blackout,” by Gary Lennon, Drunks tells the honest tale of Jim (Richard Lewis), a self-pitying man wrestling the demons of alcoholism and drug addiction. He frequently attends Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in a dingy church basement where he is surrounded and supported by a myriad of other smokers and alcoholics. The meetings are not pleasant to witness—each alcoholic has a painful story, each one taking it one day at a time.
