Free Movie--Fix: The Story of an Addicted City

This documentary is the story of the struggle to open Canada's first safe injection site for drug users. It is also the story of a man and of a city fighting drugs and addiction. Dean Wilson used to be an IBM salesman. Now he is possibly the most outspoken drug addict in Canada. He is a loud and articulate advocate for street addicts from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, one of Canada's poorest neighbourhoods, and the site of the highest HIV rate in North America. Ann Livingston is the organizer of Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users (VANDU). Together Ann and Dean lead an unpredictable crew of drug addicts in their fight to open North America's first safe injection site for drug users in Vancouver. (2002, 92 min)
