What Happens in the Pain Hustlers?

The tone of Pain Hustlers is said to be similar to films like The Big Short, American Hustle, and The Wolf of Wall Street. The official synopsis for the film is as follows:

“The film revolves around Liza Drake (Blunt), a high-school dropout dreaming of a better life for her and her young daughter, who obtains a position with a failed pharmaceutical start-up in a decaying strip mall in Central Florida. Liza’s charm, bravery, and determination propel the company and her into the high life, where she eventually finds herself at the center of a fatal criminal conspiracy.”

The film will be partially based on The Pain Hustlers, an interactive piece published in the New York Times in 2018. Evan Hughes is the author of the piece, which he describes on his own website as follows:

“The Pain Hustlers,” a feature about the Insys Therapeutics tale published in May 2018, before the lawsuit against the company’s top executives went to trial.”
