THE PHARMACIST is about a man who can’t find anything to live for… until he finds someone to die for.

Spencer (Corey Loranger) is a narcoleptic. Ten years ago, he fell asleep and something very, very bad happened. Since then, he’s been afraid to live. But his safe, repetitive life working as a pharmacist is beginning to feel as suffocating as a grave. So Spencer decides to kill himself. And that’s when a friend suggests that, if he’s planning to die anyway, he might as well take a few risks first.

When his old friend Tommy (Chris Craddock) shows up and wants to buy drugs – a lot of drugs – Spencer sees a rare opportunity for some real excitement. But when he starts to fall for the straight-laced charms of Alice (Anna-Maria LeMaistre), Spencer’s new criminal life gets very complicated.
