In the Appalachian foothills of Virginia, a boy named Demon Copperhead fights to carve a path through the unforgiving terrain of his life. Abandoned by his mother, he confronts the harsh realities of foster care and grueling labor, his existence intertwined with the opioid epidemic ravaging his community. Demon Copperhead is a searing portrait of survival, providing an intimate look at one young man's struggle to define himself against the backdrop of poverty and addiction.
