11:59, Last Minute to Choose

  • 1970 ----- color ----- 27 min ----- 16mm
  • Depicts the intensities of the hard drug scene: discussions with past and present heroin and methedrine addicts, hospital scenes with overdose cases and a woman undergoing counseling during trauma before being admitted to a hospital. Presents a feeling of strong emotional contact with the people who are using drugs and are in the limbo of being "off-on" drugs. Does not present a negative or positive comment on drugs but attempts to show some of the feelings, both painful and introspective, of the drug user.
