Description

If you're looking to cut out your vices in 2018, there may not be a better example to follow for bouncing back in the new year than William G. Wilson. In elite company amidst TIME Magazine’s “100 Persons of the 20th Century,” Bill Wilson co-founded Alcoholics Anonymous after battling his own struggle with alcoholism that nearly took his life. Now a worldwide support system of more than 2 million people, A.A. has changed countless lives. Between interviews, recreations and rare archival footage, Bill W. shines light on Wilson’s dedication and sacrifice in a touching tribute to a reluctant hero’s life and legacy.
