Requiem for a Dream (Darren Aronofsky) exposes four paralleled individuals and their menacing addiction to heroin, cocaine, and diet pills (speed). Taking place in Brooklyn amidst the waning Coney Island, the drugs are very easily obtained and keep each main character in its cycle of dependence. The protagonist Harry Goldfarb (Jared Leto) is your typical heroin junky with an ambitious plan of "Getting off hard knocks," with help from his cocaine crazed girlfriend Marion (Jennifer Connelly) and his long time friend Tyrone (Marlon Wayans). Meanwhile his widowed mother (Sarah Goldfarb) is obsessed with the glamour of television and eventually finds her way to a dietician who pushes her into the cycle of drug induced enslavement.
