Addiction, Incarceration, and Transformational Love - How Queer Filmmaker Vik Chopra Found His Voice
Manage episode 425888198 series 2832604
Growing up, Vik Chopra was not the kid most people assumed would end up serving a sentence in Federal prison. A student leader with straight A’s and numerous volunteer hours, Vik secretly hid pain and shame beneath a shiny outward persona - with disastrous consequences.
Now a filmmaker, actor, and writer who has embraced his queer and South Asian identities, Vik takes us on a transformational journey through addiction, incarceration, and rebirth. His story is a testament to the powers of embracing community, fostering daily practices, and forgiving ourselves.
We encourage you to check out the podcasts and films he is making with justice-impacted individuals. Find them at his website linked below.
