When firefighter Bobby Moss responded to an opioid overdose call in 2021, he had no idea how his life and the life of his patient were already connected.
In Georgia, drug overdose deaths increased by 76% between 2019 and 2022. Fentanyl-involved overdose deaths increased by 308%. This documentary shows how the lives of four people in a small Georgia city became intertwined by the opioid crisis – and how they come together to support the people who need it most.
