Synopsis

A young woman fumbles with love and ethics as she navigates a career with one of corporate America's darlings... the pharmaceutical industry.

Karly Hert (Katherine Heigl, from Grey's Anatomy) has spent the last ten years selling drugs... legally, that is.

Although fiction, Side Effects is closely based on the writer/director's decade working directly for the pharmaceutical industry as a sales rep. The film provides a satirical, insider's look at the daily marketing practices of big pharma.
