The 13th Step is an explosive new documentary that exposes the intimate truth about Alcoholics Anonymous, how its 'anonymous' environment has become a breeding ground for sexual predators and violent criminals. From our Federal Government down to our children's cartoons, Alcoholics Anonymous has permeated our lives and filled us with misconceptions about alcohol abuse, dependency, rehab and healing for over 50 years. But what exactly goes on in those meetings? The truth will shock you. A former member of AA for 36 years, Monica Richardson has utilized her unprecedented access to members, leadership and victims to gain some of the most compelling footage to date regarding the horrific abuse that occurs within AA and how the organization itself is covering it up.
