We are inviting producers, collaborators, and organizations who share our commitment to social impact and authentic storytelling to join this project as it moves toward completion and outreach.

Every film is a collective effort. Beyond funding, producing Living on Methadone means becoming part of a larger movement — one that aims to shift how society understands addiction, treatment, and recovery.

Whether you’re an individual, a foundation, or an organization, your involvement can help amplify the voices of people whose stories are rarely heard.

Sixty years ago, I was one of a small number of physicians who introduced methadone to treat, in an entirely new and intensely controversial way, a raging urban epidemic of heroin addiction. No longer in the news, methadone remains a widely misunderstood and underused part of the public health response to today’s opioid epidemic that is associated with fentanyl. Mani Mehrvarz has brilliantly told this story in a powerful way that humanizes and updates both opioid addiction and recovery. He puts methadone, almost forgotten now, front and center in today's drug abuse crisis.”
