SIDE EFFECTS
A Smart and Sexy Comedy!
SIDE EFFECTS is romantic comedy that is sure to make you laugh and open your eyes to a world you probably had little idea existed – legal drug dealers. This satirical look at the pharmaceutical industry, as told through the eyes of a pharmaceutical sales rep, is loosely based on writer/director Kathleen Slattery-Moschkau's decade as a pharmaceutical sales rep. Katherine Heigl of Grey’s Anatomy does a bang up job as Karly Hert.
Karly Hert (Katherine Heigl) has spent the last ten years selling drugs... legally, that is. She works for one of corporate America`s darlings, the pharmaceutical industry. Karly has it all - a big salary, a company car, a closet full of hot business suits and a growing pit in her stomach... Everything changes when she meets sexy Zach Danner (Lucian McAfee), a down-to-earth guy. Sparks fly!
As their relationship heats up, he encourages Karly to walk her talk and leave her empty job. Karly devises a plan to get out - she begins being brutally honest with physicians about her drugs` "benefits." Ironically, her sales go through the roof and she is once again wooed by the seductive golden handcuffs. Somehow leaving is never quite as easy as it seems...
Side Effects starring Katherine Heigl is the perfect prescription for a new comedy.
