Opioid overdoses were bad enough. But Vancouver’s drug supply - already contaminated with fentanyl - is now laced with benzodiazepines. Peer workers like Trey Helten, a former drug user and manager of an Overdose Prevention Site, loves his chosen community and has saved hundreds of lives with naloxone. But benzos are throwing up new kinds of challenges. Over 20 minutes, BENZODOPE immerses listeners in the intense audio environment of the OPS where a user has inadvertently injected a hit contaminated with benzos. INTRAVENE was funded by the UK-Canada Immersive Exchange programme.
