Documentarian Elaine McMillion Sheldon explores the subject through the eyes of three courageous West Virginian women -- a fire chief, a judge, and a social worker --- who are fighting the deadly epidemic in what appears to be a long and large uphill battle.

"Heroin(e)" is set to premiere this weekend at the Telluride Film Festival. It will then stream on Netflix starting Tuesday, September 12th.
