EP05 Spencer Folmar Director of Shooting Heroin - a podcast by FTS

All of us are familiar with the drug heroin and many will know someone impacted by the drug. If you have ever heard the news headline ‘Opioid Epidemic’ aka ‘the prescription drug crisis in America’ this interview pulls at the those strings and how this film was shaped. This week I sat down with Spencer Fulmar, the Director of Shooting Heroin. We discuss Spencer’s career, how film is made, from the initial concept, to the script, location, casting, filming, editing and release. We take a dive into the Opioid epidemic that is gripping America, creating a generation of addicts and causing thousands of deaths. A fascinating interview, albeit extremely sad and eye opening. The Opioid epidemic is well publicized across many documentaries, but this is the first time it has been produced on the big screen.
