Do you need drugs to have ecstatic sex? The documentary F*CK DRUGS explores (group) sex under the influence of drugs, a phenomenon that is becoming increasingly common among queer men. The film follows Davo (22), Anthony (35), and Erik (61) and shows how they explore and push their boundaries further and further within the world of chemsex. Is it about boundless pleasure and sexual freedom, or rather about inner emptiness and the fear of true intimacy in a time of individualism and increasing loneliness? The documentary examines the world of chemsex in a liberating, honest, and ecstatic, but also critical and confrontational way. In doing so, the film poses the question: is there a way back after sex under the influence of drugs?
