About The Drug Deal (A Covid-19 Comedy)
'Gary' is a loving and devoted father. He is a family-man and very proud of it. And even though he loves spending time with his family, during his 'me time', he indulges in gangsta movies and westerns. During the early days of the pandemic, people were losing their minds. There was a lot of 'unknowing' and fear. But when Gary discovers that a serious issue is affecting his family, he pulls out all of the stops to make sure things are handled and in a timely manner. So, with his clueless friend 'Carl' assisting in him on 'a secret mission', Gary pulls off 'the feat of a lifetime'...and all in the name of 'family'. "The Drug Deal (A Covid-19 Comedy)" is an 'intimate' snapshot into the life of a loving father providing for his family. Against all odds and during a pandemic, Gary is determined to make sure his family is protected, provided for, and happy.
Directed by Tanya O'Quinn, The Drug Deal (A Covid-19 Comedy) leans on a strong ensemble — Gerard Marzilli, Bron Theron, Amy Richardson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2021.
