Comments: From the director of [Pi].

This is a difficult film dealing with addiction ... on many different levels to many different things. Jennifer Connelly is beautiful all torn up. Ellen Burstyn is beautiful as she lets herself become so ugly. The film is really about her. Very creative camera work and editing add to the sense of dread, as do fine performances all around.

Summary: Drugs. They consume mind, body and soul. Once you're hooked, you're hooked. Four lives. Four addicts. Four failures. Doing their best to succeed in the world, but failing miserably, four people get hooked on various drugs. Despite their aspirations of greatness, they succumb to their addictions. Watching the addicts spiral out of control, we bear witness to the dirtiest, ugliest portions of the underworld addicts reside in. It is shocking and eye-opening but demands to be seen by both addicts and non-addicts alike.
