Yes. No. A little bit of both.
No, Finding the Way Back isn’t about any specific person’s life story. But yes, it reflects the truth that too many people endure, including Oscar winner Ben Affleck, playing the main character.
Finding the Way Back is the redemption story about a fictional character, Jack Cunningham. He grew up in a small town as a local high school basketball superstar, in a dysfunctional household. Jack punishes his abusive father by sabotaging his own future — and by extension his father’s dreams.

Ben Affleck has been transparent about his own struggles with alcohol addiction over the past few decades. He was in rehab in 2001, 2017, and again in 2018.
