Don't Get High on Your Own Supply

Leo Regan follows his friend, photographer Lanre Fehintola, as he tries to go cold turkey (detox) from heroin in his council flat and without medication.

A decade after taking a series of photographs of skinhead members of a far-right group for his book Public Enemies, Leo Regan returns to three members of the gang to see what has happened to them in the intervening years.

Real documentary footage is combined with reconstructed scenes to tell the story of Ruth, a junior doctor who hears a voice telling her to kill herself. Suspended from her job, she works with unconventional clinical psychologist Rufus May to begin to understand the voice and regain control over her life.

Scars is a recreation of a series of interviews done over about a year with Chris, a man with a violent, dangerous past who, now with wife and child, talks about his regret for the pain he has caused to his victims, how his personality was molded by his violent father, and his fears for his young son. Jason Isaacs stars as Chris, and is interviewed by Leo Regan (as himself).

Battlecentre is a large house in a rundown London suburb that opens its doors to everyone. Muggers, drug dealers and murderers have turned up here to live with families, graduates and pensioners. The only requirement is that you must start a new life and accept Jesus as your saviour. The house is owned by the Jesus Army and run by an ex-acid-dropping hippy. 'They're Christians but don't believe in religion. They live like Jesus would live; that's how they see it', says award winning director Leo Regan. This is a film about a highly intense and often-unpredictable community who set themselves apart from the world but also reveal to us some truths about the society we all live in.

A Very Dangerous Doctor explores one of the longest-running, most emotionally charged battles in British medical history. In one corner, a pioneering doctor who dared to accuse mothers of abusing their own children. In the other corner are the mothers who counter-claim that the doctor was the abuser; using his power so that he could research on the children to test his own medical theories. With unprecedented access to both sides of the story, this authored documentary, by Bafta award-winning film-maker Leo Regan, explores the controversy surrounding paediatrician Dr David Southall and a group of mothers, who he accused of abusing their children. Filmed over two years, Regan gets to the heart of the war between doctors and mothers and tries to find out who is telling the truth.

Regan first documented his friend’s life in the 1998 film Don’t Get High on Your Own Supply. Fehintola became hooked on heroin while working on a book about a group of drug addicts. Regan caught up with him again in the 2001 film Cold Turkey, as Fehintola attempted to break his addiction by locking himself in his flat without medication. My Friend Lanre jumps two decades, to a moment when Fehintola has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Regan never set out to document someone dying, but this is what his film becomes. Drawing from over 25 years of footage, the filmmaker presents an intensely intimate portrayal of his friendship and collaboration with Fehintola. It is charming, funny, devastating and, by its close, a bravely personal, living testament to one person’s life and work.
