    A documentary that examines the binge drinking culture of Great Britain: when, where, and why it started; how it compares to other cultures; and how it can be slowed. Including interviews with scientists and doctors looking to bring awareness, members of parliament trying to legislate, and people suffering with alcoholism, the film is a sobering look at a plague that has dominated the British for centuries -- and what it may take to find a solution. Along with actor and recovering addict Russell Brand, we see the director's uncle who consumes two bottles of whiskey a day. He is honest when discussing his disease, heartbreaking when sharing his chances of getting better, and unforgettable when providing a personification of alcohol's grip on British culture.
