As Prescribed digs deep into the troubling world of benzodiazepines, presenting a raw look at the lives affected by these drugs. The pacing feels deliberate, almost haunting, as it weaves together personal stories that reveal a distressing side of modern medicine. The tone is somber yet crucial – there’s a weight to the narratives that lingers. Holly Hardman’s approach, while not flashy, is compelling; she lets the subjects speak for themselves, which makes it all the more impactful. The lack of a traditional director's touch somehow adds to its authenticity. It's this kind of film that’s hard to shake off, and really makes you think about the broader implications of prescription practices.
