Synopsis by Jinko Labitag

Crisis presents three stories set against the backdrop of the opioid epidemic: an architect recovering from an addiction investigates the truth behind her son’s disappearance and connection to narcotics; a professor employed by a pharmaceutical company wrestles with unexpected revelations about the true nature of his employer; and a drug peddler who arranges a multi-cartel operation across Canada and the United States. Written and directed by Nicholas Jarecki.
