Overdose Page #5

Synopsis: In times of crisis people seek strong leaders and simple solutions. But what happens when their solutions are identical to the mistakes that caused the very crisis? 'Overdose' is the story of the greatest economic crisis of our age - the one that awaits us. The documentary traces the origins of the financial crisis and explores the eerie similarities with today's situation, where states like Greece, Iceland and even the U.S. seems to be in danger of collapsing. Among those interviewed are experts who were mocked when they predicted the current crisis. Other interviewees include Nobel laureate Vernon Smith and former US Comptroller General David Walker (I.O.U.S.A). The film is shot in the U.S., Sweden and Germany and makes extensive use of music, archive footage and graphics.

How do you feel after such

a terrible incident?

- I don't know, well I feel

fear, nothing special.

Did you manage to see

the men in the car?

He's so high.

- I only saw the shots.

As a result of this incident

there have been various

political protests by

groups from the Basque

Country, the Abertzale

deputy politician Martn

Aramenda has made the

following declaration:

At this moment...

- Dad you're on TV!...

my party precisely because

of disagreements towards

armed struggle will

continue to work tirelessly

in favor of this

negotiating process.

I read in the newspaper that

the son of that captain...

studies at your same academy.

Yes...

Do you know him?

Only by sight...

What a throat!, it doesn't stop yelling!

- It's born hooked. I'm not joking.

No sh*t. - Really, since Pilar hasn't

stopped shooting during pregnancy...

You can't imagine, the

doctor knew immediately.

Prenatal heroin addiction!

Good thing he's a trusted

Doctor otherwise...

Come on wake up!

Can't you hear the baby?

- Yes, it's just that I'm exhausted, It

didn't let me sleep a minute last night.

Alright Cojo give us the merchandise,

we've got to get going.

That's exactly what I wanted

to talk to you about.

- What's wrong?

Try and understand, Paco's

now famous, he's in

newspapers, on TV, all Bilbao

knows he's the son of

Captain Torrecuadrada.

A few angry clients

have already called me.

- If that's the way things are I can be the

one who gives face, I don't care. - I do.

Everybody knows you're friends,

they would be alarmed with you too.

But...

- No way.

You'll have to stop for the time being.

I don't want to abandon

you, but I can't mess up.

Give me some paper to fix this up. -

You, where's the paper? - In the kitchen.

There you are.

It's finally stopped crying.

You b*tch!

I told you not to do that!

- It won't shut up!, ever!,

I can't take it any more!,

my head's going to explode!

Don't you hear it?!

- This is all your fault!, explode

from heroin, see if I care!

This is all your fault!

Who got me in all this?!, who?!

Imbecil!

See!, you need to

control yourselves!

- Cojo don't try and confuse us!, we

know you more than well. Let's go.

Paco!, wait.

Where are you going?

- Bye.

Mother are you ok?

- No. Isn't father with you?

No, he's on duty.

What's wrong mother?

- I can't take this pain any

longer, I just can't.

Have you had an injection?

Yes, but it doesn't seem to help.

I am waiting for

your father to return so

he can give me another.

Where does father keep the injections?

There, in the cupboard.

Did I hurt you?

- No, in the beginning the

injections used to hurt, but

now I almost enjoy them.
