The deleterious effects of drug addiction harm not only the individual user, but touch the entire family. This award-winning documentary shares the story of Kitten, a drug addict, and her two sons and mother, all of whom must struggle daily as a consequence of Kitten’s drug addiction. The documentary reveals how Kitten abandoned her young sons and left them alone at home for over 2 weeks when her oldest son was just 5 years and her youngest was 1 year. After surviving that ordeal, the sons went to live with their grandmother, where they remain at the time of the documentary. Kitten’s mother and sons share with viewers their anguish over Kitten’s drug problems and talk about how her drug problems have shifted and shaped their lives. The video shows Kitten’s ongoing legal struggles to retain parental rights of the boys and documents her continual failures in drug treatment programs and with the legal system. At the close of the documentary, the oldest son is graduating from high school and is saddened by the absence of his mother in his life and in the life of his younger brother.
