Union County really dives into the nitty-gritty of addiction and recovery, set against the backdrop of rural Ohio. The film’s pacing is deliberate, allowing you to sit with Cody’s struggles—45 days sober but living out of his car, so you really feel the weight of his situation. It’s raw, and there’s a certain authenticity to the performances that make it resonate. The atmosphere is heavy, capturing the bleakness yet glimmers of hope in mundane life. The practical effects are there but subtle; it’s more about the emotional journey than any flashy visuals. This isn’t a glossy portrayal of addiction, it’s grounded and real, exploring the complexities of recovery outside conventional systems.
