Summary

In Edinburgh, heroin addict Mark Renton drifts through a squalid life with his unreliable friends Sick Boy, Spud, Tommy, and the volatile Begbie. Caught between half-hearted attempts to get clean and the pull of the next fix, Renton eventually tries to break away from the chaos of addiction and his mates to build a different future.
