Self introduction + Representations of intoxication

[Max M]

Hello Christine,

there's quite a lot of heroine use in Mitsuo Yanagimachi's excellent 
"Farewell to the land" (???????? / Abschied von der geliebten Erde).

There's also a rather unknown and independently produced /Yankii/-themed 
movie called "Blow the Night" (???????), directed by Chusei Sone.
I think the poster speaks for itself:

Another film that comes to mind is Toshiaki Toyoda's "PORNOSTAR".

Best,
Max
