Intervention

Moving and raw, INTERVENTION: THEN AND NOW documents the stories of six individuals from the debut season of this series whose powerful addictions nearly ruined their lives.
Alyson was a gifted student and former White House intern until her dependence on alcohol and drugs nearly destroyed her dreams. Vanessa was once a successful actress before compulsive shopping drove her to bankruptcy and despair. Gabe is a gambler who has lost over $500,000 and his home, and Matt was addicted to crack-cocaine.
SEASON ONE also tracks the interventions of two meth addicts: Sara, who must save herself for the sake of her daughter, and former rock star Travis, whose early fame resulted in drug use. (official distributor synopsis)
