Unlike any other documentary I have ever seen. American Meth tells the story just a few of the innumerable victims of methamphetamine. A prisoner, three members of a revolutionary drug treatment program and a family of six as well as various interviews with other young occasional users. This movies provides a heartbreaking look into a drug epidemic that has turned out to plague like in manner. Children go unloved and uncared for. Family members neglected and and naive teens who ignore all the warnings and dive headfirst into a world of shattered dreams and broken teeth because there's "nothing better to do".

I was on the edge of tears throughout most of the interviews of 29y/o James and 26y/o Holly. Both meth addicts and parents of four children ranging form age 8 to 2 years old.

The toll crystal meth has taken on rural America is devastating and surreal as American Meth tells. This doc paint a simple and unpleasant picture at the problem, as well as a half dozen solutions.

Watch is you want to learn more or need help.
