This documentary is a must watch for everyone who works with or will encounter someone with addiction (aka everyone). It's insightful, realistic and really well researched, making the complexity of addiction clear.

Something has to change! Yes amazing athletes, but the aim of sport should not be to inflict physical harm on the opponent.
