For more than a century, society was deceived by cigarette brands about the medical risks of smoking.

In the overwhelming outcome, a substantial percentage of the smoking population remains reasonably scarred by doubt, disbelief, and the ever-green terror of nicotine. The documentary is thus considered an eye-opener as the message it tries to send people has been figured out as highly authentic and very different from the others.  

The interesting part is that the same nicotine that has hooked individuals to fatal cigarettes also has re-arisen among young adults and kids alike with brand new nicotine-based products. These products are exploding into the conventional majority of the population extending their arms to many developed nations across the globe. Hence, experts state that it is high time to take a more magnified look at these evolutions and challenges, breaking free from the existing nicotine addiction information and myths.
