Intervention

North Carolina premiere Twenty-eight days is the recommended treatment period for a group of addicts who check into Vista Clara, one of the many fashionable rehab clinics springing up like geysers in the New Mexico desert. This film offers a fly-on-the-wall bittersweet glimpse of what goes on behind closed doors when an eclectic group of people from all walks of life find themselves under one roof for 28 days with one thing in common. Intervention is an improvised drama—in which cast members are given only a scene description—compelling each to fully develop his own character and improvise dialogue accordingly.
