Film Details

Shot over the course of three years, Shuffle follows three individuals whose lives depend not on getting into treatment, but on getting out alive. Through the lens of his own recovery, a filmmaker offers an intimate look inside the billion-dollar addiction treatment industry, where young people are bought and sold for their insurance policies and ushered into a system designed to keep them sick. These personal stories provide the framework for a more public investigation with the help of an FBI informant, an insurance analyst, and the former Executive Director of a Philadelphia-based treatment facility. This documentary unravels a web of public policy and private interest preying on a desperate population for the sake of profit.

Shuffle was the winner of the SXSW Film Festival Documentary Feature Competition.
