A Scanner Darkly is a movie written for the big screen and directed by Richard Linklanter, as an adaptation based on the novel of the same name, written by Phillip K. Dick (author of other stories that have been turned into a movie like Blade Runner, Total Recall and Minority Report).
I saw it for the first time maybe around june or july in 2005. I was watching on the internet some pages about design, about portraits made of superposed layers of solid color in the computer, when i found that in this movie was used this technique, along with another animation technique called rotoscoping, in which animator trace over live-action film movement, frame by frame, for use mainly in animated films and publicity.
The story is set in the near future, where a powerful drug know as substance D has become a great problem in the United States, a drug that makes split the conections between both user's brain hemispheres causing multiple personalities. In the movie, the main character is an undercover member of the police who is directed to spy his friends, being all of them included the cop, substance D users.
I like it a lot because of the visual treatment and the great story that has, you should watch it sometime.
