Drugs and the Nervous System (1972)

This anti-drug film from 1972 uses abstract and modernist animation styles and techniques to depict the effects of different drugs (both legal and illegal) on the human brain and body. Set to eerie music and inter-spliced with live action footage shot in and around Los Angeles, California, you’ll be shown unnerving and psychedelic imagery designed to make you think twice about abusing drugs.
