Overview
Behind the True Story takes you behind the scenes of Vince Dixon's 'Sometimes I Imagine Your Funeral', a short film based on Vince and his real-life experience of losing his sister Lauren to an overdose.

This documentary is a behind-the-scenes look at the multi-day filmmaking process of the film and is a tribute to the real-life friends and family who helped Vince create this awareness film
