SynopsisBill W. tells the story of William G. Wilson, co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, a man included in TIME Magazine's "100 Persons of the 20th Century." Interviews, recreations, and rare archival material reveal how Bill Wilson, a hopeless drunk near death from his alcoholism, found a way out of his own addiction and then forged a path for countless others to follow. With Bill as its driving force, A.A. grew from a handful of men to a worldwide fellowship of over 2 million men and women ? a success that made him an icon within A.A., but also an alcoholic unable to be a member of the very society he had created. A reluctant hero, Bill Wilson lived a life of sacrifice and service, and left a legacy that continues every day, all around the world.

I bought this video to use as an educational tool regarding Bill W. I was previously using an outdated movie to show the relevance of his life. This film provides both is past history of substance use and it helps provide insight into the thinking processes of someone with these issues. Buy it!
Great documentary about the beginnings of Alcoholics Anonymous. It showed that Bill Wilson was very human and had many addictions. He was able to recognize them and make improvements.
