June 27, 2018 – …Sitting on leather couches at a West Virginia farm, a father of two reckons with terrible news about his three-year-old daughter, who he just learned had been molested while in foster care. “I don’t know what to do,” says Jeff, who was at the farm to treat his opioid addiction. The silence lingers until addiction counselor Craig Cohen carefully asks the four men, each a portrait of masculinity in camouflage caps and tattoos: “Are we just talking shit every day? Are we just having fun?” … Then, something quietly revolutionary occurs: the men consider Jeff’s options, his feelings, and share their own experiences with sexual assault and losing custody of their children. They are not swapping war stories but working through their own experiences and emotions to process an unfortunate reality without the help of drugs or alcohol.
