The film contains one part of an educational series titled New Perspectives on Alcoholism , the theme of which is "young problem drinkers." New Perspectives on Alcoholism is directed by Bob E. Frye, presented by Norm Southerby, and is distributed by Southerby and Associates. Following an introduction, the program showcases a dramatized film on teen alcoholism titled Ninety-Nine Bottles of Beer , directed by C. Michael McCulloch and produced by the Motion Picture Unit of the County of Los Angeles under the direction of the Board of Supervisors and the Commission on Alcoholism. The narration for the film is taken directly from true accounts of young alcoholics, with actors providing dramatizations based on these interviews. This program seeks to illustrate how underage drinkers are negatively affected by their alcohol consuption, and it further illustrates this point with statistics and other related information pertaining to youth alcoholism.
The organizations Comprehensive Care Corporation (Newport, CA) and the Care Unit Program at Riverton General Hospital (Seattle, WA) are credited at the beginning of the film, though the nature of their affiliation with the production is not specified.
