Human Traffic - 1999 - 7/10

Friends head out for a weekend of excess in Cardiff.
Dancing, ecstasy, alcohol, hormones, inhibitions, release.
Home and work environments are sketched, those being family and colleagues.
Not your mates, your best friends. Those who mean the world to you – for the shortest of times.
Buried in the revelry is a sense of fin de siècle.
The end of the 90’s, the end of the millennium, the last surge of youthful exuberance.
A roaring club soundtrack, and a low mixed dialogue track.
To hear conversations, you have to crank the volume.
Back inside the nightclub roar, raise your arms and reach for the lasers.
