Shades of Despair

A serious alcholic has but two options: stop drinking altogether or die early. Unfortunately most heavy drinkers do not see the truth until it's too late. Joe B. is one who has been in denial for some years. His life is a shambles. He is divorced out of a job living alone in Greenwich Village. Still he drinks heavily; so heavily that every night he sees on the wall opposite his bedroom window shadowy demons. He has a friend who has stopped drinking through a program he belongs to. The friend takes Joe B. to meetings with him but Joe B. has a hard time getting the message. Finally after several truamatic incidents Joe B. is faced with a choice: fatality or sobriety. Which will he choose?
