I'm mainly interested in the representation of the altered state of consciousness because of intoxication (by drugs, alcohol or any invented substance) or the cinematic excess, for example, when intoxication is used to reflect on the medium's materiality ... That's why I'm interested in scenes that entangle exterior and interior in some way and go beyond showing someone who is drunk or high. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
