Loaded

An unsentimental drama in which the relationships and psychological tensions among seven teenagers are explored in some depth. Neil is in therapy - he feels responsible for the accidental death of his brother, when a child. He and a group of friends spend a weekend in a country house making a film. Sexual tension and jealousy lurk beneath the fun , and this becomes more accute when Lionel has an interest in Rose, with whom Neil has a budding relationship. The boisterous Lance suggests that they all take some LSD, which goes along rather swimmingly until Lionel is killed in an accident while Neil is driving.
