My Friend Lanre

Overview

Regan revisits his friend Fehintola, whose struggles with addiction were first captured in his 1998 documentary, Don’t Get High on Your Own Supply. As Fehintola battled heroin dependency while writing about other addicts, Regan later chronicled his journey in Cold Turkey, where Fehintola attempted to detox in isolation. Fast forward twenty years, and a terminal cancer diagnosis brings a somber shift. Regan, originally not intending to capture a death, instead crafts a poignant tribute through over 25 years of footage, blending charm, humor, and heartbreak into a deeply personal exploration of friendship and legacy.
