It has all been my dream/utopia that every single human being on earth should have at least one work (movie, book, poem, painting, sculpture, E=mc'2, etc).Yes Ben: Diary of a Heroin Addictis one of those works.And it deserves really high place in documentation history."Requiem For A Dream" and "Trainspotting" has always been accepted as the best works about Heroin addiction.But in my opinion Ben's work deserves more than these movies.Thanks Ben.You have done a really good job. Your ruined life will guide to many many people to have their life not ruined.I wish yours were not either.And I know you have tried your best. Love for you and your lovely dad/family. best luck to all heroin addicts all around the world

Ben's Addiction

This documentary is a eye opening true story about a man who lost his life due to addiction. It shows that no matter what background you are, drugs are dangerous and should not be messed with. I also think this documentary shows the real effects on family life and how it can impact others not just Ben, for example when his father had to go with him to pick up. It shows the strain it puts on family life and the devasting effects of drug addiction.
