Emily’s experience of drinking alcohol
Emily tells how an evening of drinking alcohol led to a sequence of events that changed her life. At the time, she set out just wanting to have a good time, but after her experience with alcohol her attitude to drinking has changed significantly.
Emily, now 17, was so drunk after leaving a bar that she agreed to the offer of help finding a taxi from a guy she barely knew, with devastating consequences. She was assaulted in a nearby park.
The affect of alcohol on Emily is explored through scientific analysis and highlights how behaviour can change dramatically when drinking. This is shown through interviews, reconstructions and scientific graphics.
