Matt and Anna’s relationship is going swimmingly, until the sewers under their apartment open up and begin to speak. The plumber is angry, Matt’s paintings are getting stranger, and a storm is gathering. An eerie comedy about what is real, what is not, and who knows.

The topic of heroin and how it is impacting our country and our city is in the news all too often. We thought it was time to share some stories from people on the front lines of the epidemic here at home.

Hear stories from a small-town police chief trying to make a big difference; a mom who got the news no parent should ever receive; a man who is trying to reduce the stigma associated with addiction through song; a woman trying to address the problem by talking to kids; and a woman in recovery who is helping pave the way for others on their journeys.
