Synopsis

Explores the rising wave of crystal use in the gay community. With its promise of sexual confidence and endurance, the drug possesses an allure and soaring popularity that the men discuss candidly.

From the early thrills of mind-blowing ecstasy and feelings of superhuman power, crystal packs a punch that eventually overtakes the user, leading to a crushing descent into darkness, paranoia and self-destructive behavior. Current users share their experiences while former users who have managed to shake its grip express glimmers of hope.
