SYNOPSIS:

Facing the Habit tells the story of Dave, a former stockbroker/millionaire whose life has spiraled out of control due to his heroin addiction. In his desperate quest to become clean, Dave agrees to undergo treatment with ibogaine, an experimental substance derived from the West African root Iboga, which has recently been reported to cure drug addiction.

Facing the Habit is an intimate look into the life of the addict, as Dave's life is revealed before, during, and after the treatment.
