Seychelles, Heroin and Me - BBC Africa Eye Documentary

Video Description

The Seychelles is known as a tropical paradise with a multi-million dollar tourist industry. But beyond the 5-star hotels and azure beaches is a country in turmoil. Based on population, Seychelles has the biggest heroin problem in the world with around 10% of Seychellois dependent on the drug. Joseph Fady Banane, who’s lived on the islands all his life, was one of them. Now free of heroin, Fady investigates the secret epidemic that lies behind the luxury. Meeting drug users, dealers, police, and the communities caught in the middle, Fady confronts a painful past and tries to reconnect with those he loves…and almost lost.
