FEINSTEIN FAMILY DOCUMENTARY

While the characters and events of the film What About The Kids? are fictional, the story they tell is all too real. For families around the country, drug abuse and addiction are leaving tragedy in their wake. The Feinstein family of Florida is just one example, and their moving story of heartbreak relates closely to the story told in our film. Writer and director Jim Wahlberg interviewed the members of the Feinstein family, capturing their journey in a powerful mini-documentary to help viewers better understand the realities of addiction and the journey to recovery.
