Love in the Time of Fentanyl

Love in the Time of Fentanyl

Presented by Hot Docs at Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema

As the number of overdose deaths in Vancouver, BC, reached an all-time high, the Overdose Prevention Society (OPS) opened its doors—a renegade supervised drug consumption site that primarily employs active and former drug users. Its staff and volunteers save lives and give hope to a marginalized community as the overdose crisis rages throughout Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. With loved ones dying in unprecedented numbers, the staff at OPS does whatever it takes to save lives and find radical new ways out of the devastating but widely ignored crisis ravaging their community. Love in the Time of Fentanyl is an intimate, observational look beyond the stigma of people who use drugs, revealing the courage of those facing tragedy in a neighborhood often referred to as ground zero of the overdose crisis.

Tickets: $15 (Members from $10)
