"What would you do if someone gave you a lot of money to sell drugs? Legal drugs, that is, pharmaceuticals. Would you lie to make your sales quota? Would you conceal the truth?
A new indie movie called Side Effects tackles these issues head-on and does it with remarkable candor, humor, and balance. This is not some hard-hitting documentary that calls for dismantling "Big Pharma". Side Effects entertains as it illuminates. This film, shot for less than $200,000,
is a romantic comedy wrapped around an important message."
— Tony Cecala, HolisticNetworker.com
Side Effects is closely based on the writer/ director's
decade working directly for the pharmaceutical industry
as a drug sales rep.
