Vermont filmmaker Eugene Jarecki says he thought about making a movie about the war on drugs for more than 20 years. The House I Live In is the result of that effort - a documentary that is largely an indictment of the legal, political and social framework of the war on drugs.
The film won the grand Jury award at the Sundance Film Festival for best documentary, and it premieres on PBS stations across the country this week. Eugene Jarecki spoke with Vermont Edition about the film.
