Can I have one of your pills?

Warning: Spoilers
This is a small town USA oxycodone story. Waylon (Josh Stewart) has lost a daughter and doesn't like to talk about it all the time with his wife (A.J. Cook) so they split. Working at the lumber mill, Waylon sometimes has back pain and the next thing you know he is on the path to chasing the dragon. It is a slow burn drama with not much action. Seems almost everyone in town uses opioids.

The film attempts to be meaningful by using a river and a trapped trout symbolism. Well done, but a bit on the sad and boring side of entertainment.

Guide; F-word. Implied sex. No nudity.
