SOUTHWEST PREMIERE
Rock Bottom: Gay Men & Meth
7 p.m. Friday, June 1, Rose Marine Theater
Director: Jay Corcoran
U.S.A., 2006, 61 min.

Follows the journeys of seven gay men struggling with meth addiction and recovery against a backdrop of an emerging second wave of HIV infection. From grappling with the drug's effects on their physical and mental health to wrestling with their darkest sexual desires, Rock Bottom delivers a chilling portrait of a community in crisis. With an unflinching eye the film captures their stories over a two-year period, from sex clubs to hospitals to family gatherings. It takes enormous courage to face these demons, and even more to allow the world to watch. For anyone struggling with meth addiction, or anyone trying to help someone in trouble, Rock Bottom will offer hope that change can happen, and insight into how change begins. For anyone thinking they can play with meth and not get caught up, the film will be a cautionary tale of how wrong they might be.
