"Drunk In Public" is now a feature documentary directed by award winning filmmaker David J. Sperling. This film chronicles the unimaginable last 14 years in the touching, tragic and thought provoking life of Mark David Allen, a man arrested more than 460 times.

This documentary provides a non-judgemental objective long term look at alcoholism...It is somber, educational, sometimes funny and entertaining. Audiences seem to respond to this unique presentation on an issue that effects nearly everyone. Therefore it is ideal for rehabilitation programs, teenagers & their families, law enforcement training, churches, schools and anyone else touched by the trauma of addiction.

Since it's first version, "DRUNK IN PUBLIC" has screened in 15 festivals and collected 5 awards. The completed version is now screening at film festivals and just captured the "BEST EDITING" trophy at the 2007 BOULDER INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL.
