Side Effects
It’s not often that I find myself pluging a romantic comedy, but Side Effects is also a satirical look at the pharmaceutical industry.
Karly Hert has spent the last ten years selling drugs…legally, that is.
Although conflicted on a daily basis by the values within the pharmaceutical industry, an industry driven by profits at the expense of patients; Karly has been seduced by the golden handcuffs of corporate America.
Enter Zach Danner, who convinces Karly to be true to her values and walk away from her lucrative but empty job. As their relationship blossoms, Karly devises a plan to get out. But leaving is never quite as easy as it seems…
Side Effects is closely based on the writer / director’s decade working directly for the pharmaceutical industry as a drug sales rep.
