This is a fantastic look at the use of steroids from three American brothers who have actually used them. But you don’t get the usual scare tactics, finger waving and horror stories about these controversial drugs, you actually get a balanced look at both sides of the war on steroids.

In America, they define themselves in the superlative: they are the biggest, strongest, fastest country in the world. They reward speed, size and above all else: winning - at sport, at business and at war. Metaphorically they are a nation on steroids. Is it any wonder that so many American heroes are on performance enhancing drugs?

From the producers of Bowling For Columbine and Fahrenheit 9/11 comes a new film that unflinchingly explores America’s win-at-all-cost culture through the lens of a personal journey. Blending comedy and pathos, Bigger, Stronger, Faster is a collision of pop culture, animated sequences and first-person narrative, with a diverse cast including US Congressmen, professional athletes, medical experts and everyday gym rats.

At it's heart, this is the story of director Christopher Bell and his two brothers, who grew up idolizing muscular giants like Hulk Hogan, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, and who went on to become members of the steroid-subculture in an effort to realize their American dream. When you discover that your heroes have all broken the rules, do you follow the rules, or do you follow your heroes?
