Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to the Los Angeles premiere of Union County, including an in-person conversation with writer/director Adam Meeks.

Union County, along with filmmaker Adam Meeks, and producers Brad Becker-Parton and Faye Tsakas, received support the Film Independent Screenwriting Lab and Fast Track finance market in 2023.
 

Will Poulter and Noah Centineo deliver pitch-perfect performances as brothers Cody and Jack Parsons, each navigating a court-mandated drug rehabilitation program in a pocket of rural Ohio hit hard by the opioid epidemic. Provided with hope for the first time since their struggles began, and with the support of a tireless counselor (Annette Deao), the brothers work toward a brighter, sober future.

From Oscilloscope Laboratories, Union County premiered at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival and will be released theatrically on August 14.
