**Screenwriter**: John Hodge from the novel by Irvine Welsh **Producer**: Andrew Macdonald Smart, funny, sickly and sometimes just plain unconscious, Mark Renton is a hero for our times. Set in an underbelly of Edinburgh the city fathers never dreamed of, *Trainspotting* is the story of Mark and his so-called friends – a bunch of losers, liars, psychos, thieves and junkies. Hilarious but harrowing, the film charts the disintegration of their friendship as they proceed, seemingly inevitably, towards self-destruction. Mark alone has the insight and opportunity to escape his fate – but then again, does he really want to ‘choose life’?
