Apostas on line: O outro lado do jogo

Abstract

This documentary focuses on the reality of people living with gambling addiction, presenting different perspectives on the consequences of this behavior. Its goal is to narrate the struggles of individuals affected by addiction as they face daily challenges in their journey toward recovery. The film also aims to show the impact of this addiction on families, friends, and society as a whole. The documentary approaches online gambling addiction from two angles: the testimonies of people battling the addiction and trying to overcome it, and the viewpoint of their families, who deal with the consequences of this behavior. In addition, interviews with professionals who work with addiction are featured. The documentary explores the roots of gambling addiction, how it develops, the behaviors associated with it, and the psychological effects it has on both gamblers and those around them. As a result, the film highlights the urgent need for broader and more responsible communication efforts to raise awareness about the devastating consequences of gambling addiction.
