Film Description

As Carren Clem staggers toward her father’s truck, she takes the first steps of a horrifying journey to the depths of addiction, loss, and – ultimately – one astounding recovery. Saving Carren documents the story of a retired cop who watches his daughter fall prey to the destructive power of methamphetamines, a young woman whose father risks everything to save her, and the love that brings them both back from the brink of death.

Clashing between stark animation and riveting personal narrative, Saving Carren unlocks the guarded doors of a meth addict’s private hell. Most memorable, however, is the strength that Ron and Carren show in redeeming themselves from their respective personal demons to reclaim their lives, and their commitment to inspiring hope in the rest of us by sharing this dynamic story.
