Drug Buddy
Synopsis:
Drug Buddy is about staying up all night and waking up transformed into the person you never wanted to become. Wade is recovering from a night of firsts: his first drug experience, his first sexual experience, his first brush with death. It's been an eventful night-if only he could remember it. Wade's best friend Bodie remembers enough to know that they need to get out of Texas. Fast!
