About this film
The basic narcotic drugs are described and divided into stimulants and depressives, habit-forming and non-habit-forming. Included in the program is a film of a real addict undergoing withdrawal and receiving the shot that assuages him. The true criminal is the distributor and peddler who preys upon and enslaves the addict. The addict who commits crime to support his habit is a secondary effect.
