Justin Hunt travels across the United States to trace how methamphetamine went from a regional problem to a national crisis, stopping in small towns and rural counties where local labs and Mexican cartel supply chains have reshaped daily life. Addicts speak on camera about the drug's grip, alongside law enforcement officers describing overwhelmed jails, and doctors and researchers explaining what meth does to the brain and body over years of use. The film moves through burned-out houses used as former labs, courtroom scenes, and interviews with family members left to raise children after parents disappear into addiction. Hunt keeps the focus local and personal rather than statistical, letting individual towns stand in for a pattern repeating across the country. Policy debates over sentencing and treatment funding surface through the people enforcing and living under them, not through pundits. The result is a ground-level record of an epidemic often discussed in the abstract, told through the people closest to it.
