Filmed in documentary style, the film follows the character of Gringo, a young man looking for fortune in New York City, only to fall into heroin addiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe movie has amassed quite a reputation in certain circles for its depictions of hard drug usage in New York City's East Village area. Many of the cast members, including leading man John Spacely, are actual junkies. The numerous shooting-up sequences are reportedly entirely real, as are many of the drug dens. Perhaps even more notable than the cinéma vérité structure is the almost total lack of moralising on the part of the producers or their characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLead actor Spacely died in the early 1990s, reportedly from HIV, which he contracted through intravenous drug use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Every high has a price.
