HIGH OR DRY is a portrait of two middle-class heroin users and the people around them. Mark is a magnetic, all-consuming presence who affects everyone around him, but, as the film unflinchingly observes, his self-destructive addiction threatens everything he holds close. Whether Mark and his friends are finding a way to escape their problems, confronting them, or are finding a way to get clean or get on, HIGH OR DRY captures these parts of their lives. At times tragic, at times hilarious...'Don't run too far as you'll have to return the same distance'.
