INDIANAPOLIS -- One film premiering this week at the Indianapolis Film Festival has a subject that hits close to home in the Midwest: heroin addiction.
"Not Me" features four parents, and four recovering addicts.
RTV6's Lauren Casey met with the director and executive producer for the film, who said the movie is raw and emotional. It's a film they hope will start a conversation about the issues and hardships that come with drug addiction.
