What drew me in completely was Gabriel's poem. This is a very unique piece, because it completely draws you into it in the beginning, but it dwindles down a bit at the end. I expected the piece to be just his poem, so it surprised me that there were questions at the end. It mellowed out the mood that Gabriel's poem.
This is not exactly an addiction help piece, but more of a personal and opinionated piece. Instead of the expected interviews with rehab center workers and drug addicts, you get the opinions of youth. It's nice to get to learn about how these people percieved addiction, but the opinions were light hearted compared to Gabriel's shapr and raw. Basically there were two moods in the piece, and that did not really sit well with me.
The sound levels could have gone down a little bit, high sound levels for the poem is fine, but for the interview it should have been a little lower.
