TRAINSPOTTING : film form in the overdose/withdrawal scene

Focus on the Overdose and Withdrawal scenes below to answer the following question in a written report






 

How is film form  used in these scenes  to explore and develop the film's social/emotional / narrative themes and the  relationships between characters ? ( e.g the widespread nature of heroin use in Edinburgh, Renton's  emotions and  relationships with family and friends ) 

Look at some of these themes  in terms of binary oppositions  ( e.g Renton v Begbie , family v independence , heroin v life)
