- Description
More and more of us are taking illicit drugs each month; we’ve never had more choice when it comes to drugs, or had easier access to them. But how many people have any idea what they’re taking? And is the gamble worth it? The emergence of new drugs and untested legal highs has resulted in a rising death toll, raising questions about current legislation. Using the UK as a case study, DJ B. Traits investigates drug culture, and asks whether it’s time for a rethink on this complex issue. Talking to paramedics, police, drug users, and the experts exploring new approaches to testing, she asks whether the law and education are doing enough to protect young people. Hard-hitting and balanced, this film offers a fresh perspective on a problematic, emotive subject. A BBC Production.
