Union County Debuts at Sundance as a Grounded Docudrama on Recovery

Adam Meeks’s Union County, a feature blending fiction and documentary set in Bellefontaine, Ohio, follows Cody Parsons (Will Poulter) and his foster brother Jack (Noah Centineo) on their opioid-recovery journeys, with real participants and court-date scenes filmed on location to portray community-driven rehabilitation. The film emphasizes the concrete support of the local recovery program and counselors like Annette Deao, and it premieres in Sundance’s U.S. Dramatic Competition while seeking distribution. Centineo and Poulter describe immersive prep and a commitment to authentic representation beyond bleak depictions of addiction, highlighting the film’s hopeful, scenic rural backdrop and its focus on recovery as a viable path forward.
