Looking for Toxin X (Czech: Hledá se Toxin X) is a Czechoslovak short popular science documentary about LSD.
A dose of LSD is given to a DAMU theatre student, Petr Oliva, by the Czech psychiatrist Stanislav Grof. Special effects convey the subjective experience of the experimental subject. The film's central premise is the search for ‘toxin x’, which is supposed to be at the root of all mental disorders. The medics believe that LSD will help them locate it.[1]
