Hairkutt

Synopsis

Four friends from St. Louis, MO travel to a remote cabin in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee. Their plan is to help a friend, Bryant "HairKutt" Johnson kick his 15-year addiction to heroin.

This REEL LIFE documentary follows HairKutt through his detoxification as withdrawal turns into debilitating and life-threatening illness. Eventually, he is so consumed by need for the drug that he attempts to escape the mountain cabin and return home to the streets of St. Louis, more than 500 miles away.

Although HairKutt's friends are able to coax him back to the cabin, his condition worsens, and they must rush him to a hospital in an effort to save his life. Is this his deathbed or is it a springboard to a new life that is free from the drug that has dominated his existence? This story climaxes almost two years later with a tell-all truth about the trip and HairKutt's final condition.
