Addicts

Twenty year old Izzy is running for her life. After surviving a brutal beating from her abusive husband, she flees into the freezing city streets with nothing but a broken pair of boots, three hundred dollars in cash, and a stolen stash of Zuzane, a devastatingly potent strain of meth. When the supply runs out and the brutal reality of homelessness and trauma threatens to crush her, she seeks refuge in a crowded downtown shelter. But sobriety offers no comfort for the haunting memories in her head, and her desperation leads her right into the path of a stranger.

Josh is twenty four and already weathered by a unforgiving world. Fresh out of prison, jobless, and completely homeless, he returns to the only survival mechanism he has ever known: the drug trade passed down by his late father. He has one golden rule for surviving the streets, which is to never get close to the clients.

But when Josh sits across from Izzy in a crowded dining hall, their eyes lock, and a silent transaction changes everything.

What begins as a weekly exchange born of absolute necessity quickly spirals into an intense, consuming romance. As they fall deeply in love, Josh watches the toxic poison destroy the girl he wants to protect, forcing him into a desperate battle to help her quit while he remains trapped in the dangerous lifestyle that funds their survival. In a world where love and addiction collide, they must fight against the systems that broke them, entirely unaware of the tragic price the streets will ultimately demand.
