Waste of Candy is an award-winning short film that challenges our moral and ethical responsibility to ourselves and to society. The film explores one teenager‰۪s struggle with a critical decision: should he try to stop a seemingly intoxicated couple from driving with their young child? The film gives two scenarios: Scenario One: The teenager does nothing. He lets the couple get in their car with their little girl and the car crashes and the girl is killed. Scenario Two: The teenager stops the couple from driving and calls the Police. This program makes an important point for students to consider. Taking action against drunk driving (or any irresponsible act) may seem like an unpopular decision, however they must consider the possible consequences if they fail to take action.

What are the pluses and minuses about trying to help a friend that is abusing alcohol or drugs? What makes it difficult to cross social boundaries?
