Crystal methamphetamine, known as Meth, Tina or Crank is wreaking havoc. It’s now the number one problem drug in the US and has become the drug of choice amongst the gay community. This film lifts the lid on this hitherto unknown phenomenon, exposing a new public health problem which is destroying the lives of thousands.

Its export to Europe and the rest of the world is taking place right now and will begin to affect mainstream communities outside of the US later this year. Gay Meth users report euphoric highs, the loss of all inhibitions and an extraordinary boost to their sex drive. The result, a drug that is more addictive than crack cocaine and a massive jump in HIV infection.

METH explores the effect of the drug on gay culture in America and the hundreds of deaths it has caused through addiction and AIDS. Through the stories and reflections of a dozen gay men across the US, who range in age from 21 to 50, we learn about meth’s allure, its promise, and why its popularity has soared within the gay community.
