Death is dangerous, it could hurt
Mariane Béliveau / Canada / 2023 / International Premiere / 18 min.
synopsis
The three female protagonists present their personal relationship with intravenous drug use, and their intimate confessions are filled with fear and insecurity but also love for the state of intoxication. Ambient music in the background and colourful textures multiplying over shots of the everyday reality of drug users create an almost dreamlike world.“I won’t feel the full effects the whole night, but it will help take my mind off things.”
