Indie Lens Pop-Up: Love in the Time of Fentanyl
Mount Pleasant Library - From filmmakers Colin Askey (Director), Monika Navarro (Producer), Marc Serpa-Francoeur (Producer), and Robinder Uppal (Producer), "Love in the Time of Fentanyl" shows how a supervised drug consumption site gives hope to a marginalized community ravaged by the overdose crisis.
As deaths in Vancouver, Canada reach an all-time high, the Overdose Prevention Society opens its doors—a renegade supervised drug consumption site that employs active and former drug users. Its staff and volunteers do whatever it takes to save lives and give hope to a marginalized community in this intimate documentary that looks beyond the stigma of people who use fentanyl and other drugs.
