Symbolism and Meaning

My story is a highly emotional tale of 2 clowns, who only have each other in this world... and crack. The clown industry is failing, children don't need clowns to entertain them anymore these days, because they have Xbox  and TV  These two clowns Figi olda and oom Koos have lost their jobs and their families, they live in wastelands and are completely addicted to crack, cocaine and heroin. Their lives have been ruined and they suffer from physchotic delusions. The breastfeeding scene is the main theme and centerpiece scene of the film.  When the 2 clowns smoke crack together, its as if they are being nourished by the crack, they enjoy it so much that they feel nourished, though ironically its ravaging them. The ultimate form of nourishment is breast milk  both the mother and baby draw comfort, safety and pleasure from this bonding process. So this is the metaphor and the reasoning behind all their drug abuse. Also some of the voice clips are from the clowns childhoods, of how their parents abused them, shouted at them and tried to force them to become lawyers and doctors. They came from pushy loveless homes, which ruined their psyches forever.

The disorientating shots and editing techniques symbolize the way the clowns feel when they smoke crack, disorientated and 'totally tripping balls'.
