The video narration is a poem of Anne, a drug abuser, and how her journey progresses as she spirals into addiction. She recalls the highs and the desire for more. Unfortunately, her addiction dragged her father into the mess, working so hard only to suffer the horrors of having your own daughter be a drug addict. Only when Anne can think clearly does she see her actions don’t just affect her but everyone around her, especially those closest to her; questioning if that few moments of high was really worth living the rest of your life as a nightmare. Ultimately, as the first word of each stanza spells out “I regret doing drugs.” The ‘O’ at the end being the full-stop. This film was shot to show, not tell, what drug addiction does. Daydream It felt–good Remember that feeling? Everyday, dawn to dusk, time flew Give me more…set me free Remember that feeling…drifting on water Every time it hits The pain numbs…like I’m free-floating Dreams feel so real…until you Open your eyes to the nightmare I didn’t ask for this Non of it! Give me back my dream! Dad? No…I didn’t mean to… Rebecca? Why are you here! Under the water, no one can hear me scream… Give me another chance…I wish… Somebody there? Oh…The one who set me free…is also the one who watch me drown… All music used is from Pixabay
