AChanceTo Live
Full Reset. Recalibrated. Restored.
Six people whose lives stopped working. Two weeks in a villa on the Baja coast. Their communities rallied to send them. We film what they choose to share as they step away from the life that stopped working and set out to reset it, and we make no promises about how it ends.
What it is
The people are the show.
Everyone knows someone whose life stopped working. A Chance to Live follows six people who decided to do something about it. Their families, friends and supporters rallied to send them.
For two weeks in Rosarito, they step away from the life that isn't working and set out to reset it. We're there for the before, the decision, and the coming home. The treatment night stays private. The show is the people.
- Real people, real stakes.No actors, no stunts, no contest. Nobody is voted off.
- The community is in it.Supporters rally behind one person and follow their story.
- A clear shape.Before, the stay, the return. Six stories, one place, two weeks.
- Dignity first.Participants approve how they're shown. Hard moments are never broadcast live.

The circle
Back someone's reset
You don't have to be one of the six to be part of the show. Every participant has a circle, and every circle has room for one more.
Join a circle
Follow one person's story and add your support to the people sending them.
Share their campaign
Pass it on. Often the right person is one share away.
Be there for the coming home
Circles don't end at the airport. Show up for what comes next.
Patient stories
In their words
“There was my life before ibogaine and my life after.”
“I have a sharper sight and a perfect clarity in my mind.”
“two days after the trip I felt completely reborn and a sense of peace that was so pure and clean”
“I took Iboga in 2014. 180 life change. Most important thing I've ever done.”
Individual experiences. Results vary.
A Chance to Live is a documentary project. It makes no medical claims and promises no outcomes. Fundraising for a participant's circle is not admission to treatment.
