The Junky's Christmas
Cold turkey again this year?
A darkly poignant stop-motion parable about addiction and redemption, narrated by Burroughs, that finds grace in the margins of Christmas.
Burroughs takes down a book and reads us the story of Danny the Carwiper, who spends Christmas Day trying to score a fix, but finds the Christmas spirit instead.
