Why do people across cultures gather regularly to intoxicate themselves? Vivid and at times deeply personal, Intoxication offers new insights into a wide variety of intoxicating experiences, from the intimate feeling of connection among concertgoers to the adrenaline-fueled rush of a fight to the thrill of jumping off a balcony into a swimming pool. Sébastien Tutenges shows what it means and feels to move beyond the ordinary into altered states in which the transgressive, spectacular, and unexpected takes place.
