Critics' reviews

"Eye-opening documentary (...) It's a valuable lesson, indeed, but not a particularly cinematic one. Still, it's remarkable in its proximity to an ongoing crisis that very few people know how to handle"

Jude Dry: IndieWire
"Despite the harrowing scenes, Askey manages to infuse 'Love in the Time of Fentanyl' with scenes of joy, creativity and friendship"

Concepción de León: The New York Times
"An empathetic snapshot of a Vancouver clinic grappling with the overwhelming toll of opioid addiction in their community"

Stephen Saito: The Playlist
