Love in the Time of Fentanyl

At the height of the fentanyl overdose crisis, drug users in Vancouver started taking it upon themselves to try to save lives. Colin Askey’s intimate documentary follows volunteers at the city’s Overdose Prevention Society, where a group of misfits, artists, and drug users operates a renegade safe-injection site. Executive-produced by Oscar-winning director Sean Baker (Anora, The Florida Project), Love in the Time of Fentanyl reaches beyond the stigma of drug use, revealing the courage and compassion of those trying to keep their community alive. (Love in the Time of Fentanyl is a 2022 documentary film by Colin Askey)
