Frequently Asked Questions

What is Gridlock'd about? Toggle content

In Gridlock'd, after their friend's near-fatal overdose, two jazz musicians (Tupac Shakur and Tim Roth) and heroin addicts, Spoon and Stretch, decide it's time to kick their habit and enroll in a detox program. However, their attempts are foiled by endless red tape and a bureaucratic system that seems designed to keep them addicted. As they navigate the treacherous streets of Detroit avoiding drug dealers and the police, they soon realize that getting clean won't be easy. With an uncredited appearance by Bokeem Woodbine as a drug dealer and a cameo by the director Vondie Curtis-Hall as a rehab counselor, this crime comedy-drama takes a fresh look at the struggles of addiction.
