In 1550, the French ambassador Jean Nicot introduced the seeds of the Nicotiana tabacum plant into Europe, and from his name was born one of the most widespread drugs in the world, nicotine. A substance that works through the action of dopamine receptors and is similar to that caused by Heroin and Cocaine. Almost a billion people in the world smoke cigarettes and in many cases they must use all their willpower to quit. This is the story of a person struggling with his addiction and chasing a life free from smoking.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
