Poison
Outsiders, sex, and violence are explored in three intercut pieces. Richie kills his father and flees at the age of seven in "Hero." A documentary shot in corny lurid colors after the occurrence explores what Richie was like and what led up to the shooting. A scientist isolates the elixir of human sexuality, consumes it, and becomes a festering, contagious murderer; a female colleague who loves him tries to help, to her risk. In "Homo," a prisoner in Fontenal is drawn to a convict he met years ago in Baton juvenile institute, and who he observed being humiliated. Except for the vivid flashbacks, this story is told in dim light.
