Synopsis
The Pharmacist (2020) is a true-crime documentary series you can watch online on iFILM, and it's the story of one stubborn man taking on an entire industry. Dan Schneider, a small-town druggist outside New Orleans, loses his son — shot dead buying drugs in a rough corner of the city. The police all but shelve the case. He refuses to.
So he investigates it himself. Wiretapping his own phone, logging tips, cross-checking receipts and street addresses, Dan slowly closes in on the shooter. But the trail keeps widening. He notices a flood of OxyContin prescriptions washing through his pharmacy and traces it back to a doctor handing out pills by the hundreds. A father's private vengeance turns into one of the earliest grassroots strikes against an opioid epidemic that would soon swallow the country.
Directors Jenner Furst and Julia Willoughby Nason build all four episodes on Dan's own tapes and archives, which is exactly what gives it weight — you hear the real voices, not actors. Fans of meticulous true crime like Making a Murderer will find a real public stakes here. Stream every episode of The Pharmacist (2020) online on iFILM.
