The document is a shot list for a music video. It contains 30 shots ranging from close-ups to medium shots filmed both indoors and outdoors. The shots show various people smoking cigarettes with the word "addict" written on their hands and feature the lead singer of the band performing and lip syncing lyrics about cigarette addiction and dependence. Interspersed are conceptual shots, reverse shots, and shots of cigarettes appearing to reform when played in reverse to symbolize the power of addiction.
