An investigation into the extent of the methamphetamine problem in Australia,
highlighting the need to find the means to cope with the beginning of the 'Ice
Age'. Until now, it has been a hidden epidemic. Little is known about its long-
term effects, or how to treat its addiction. The alarmingly sharp increase in
the use of 'Ice", or crystal methamphetamine, is drawing attention to the
problem. Methamphetamine is also known as 'meth' or 'chalk', on which about 73,
000 Australians are dependant. The drug is cheap, highly addictive and ultra-
powerful. Therefore, 'Ice' is now more popular than heroin, with many former
heroin addicts turning to it. The drug is playing havoc with the minds and the
bodies of thousands of addicted Australians. As well, it is also big on the
party circuit, and is used across the social spectrum. Ice patients filling the
hospital emergency wards are psychotic, dangerous, and the most out of control,
violent human beings whom attending doctors have ever seen. Health services and
governments in Australia are unprepared for the chaos, which 'Ice' has just
begun to unleash.
In this programme, hard-core Ice addicts take viewers into their world, on a
journey into the dark heart of the 'Ice age' which has hit Australia. Includes
footage of a hard-core addict, his habits and his community, an itinerant group
who prefer anonymity and who do not show how they source their drugs. They call
themselves 'skaters', i.e. one who is on 'high' just going round in circles.
