About This Project
Summary
Shot over the course of three years, Shuffle follows three individuals whose lives depend not on getting into treatment, but on getting out alive, and in the process, shines a light on the insurance-fueled cycle of addiction treatment fraud spreading across the country where addicts are being bought and sold for their insurance policies. The film unravels a web of public policy and private interest preying on a desperate population for the sake of profit.
Goals & Objectives
The goal of Shuffle was to expose systemic corruption in America’s addiction treatment industry and spark national dialogue around healthcare reform, patient rights, and accountability. We aimed to empower survivors and families, and reframe addiction as a public health—not private profit—issue.
Results & Impact
Shuffle premiered at SXSW to critical acclaim, and ignited a national conversation. We intend to keep this conversation going through our #stoptheshuffle campaign, a growing grassroots movement that calls for accountability and ethical reform in addiction treatment.
