Dig the Dry Zone

For a group of recovering addicts, the only thing more powerful than the compelling drink of alcohol is the support they find in music, in each other, and in God. As the former addicts embark on a twelve-week recovery period at a European rehabilitation center, they begin to seek help through hymns. As the group battles their addictions, they're faced with love and divorce, life and death, and the overall struggle to believe. Their journey of recovery has no bounds, showing addiction - and self-limitations -can be overcome with just a little amount of faith.
