About This Movie

The New Protocol is one of those films that dives into the murky waters of the pharmaceutical industry with a gritty realism that's hard to shake off. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it builds a palpable tension. The protagonist, a father torn apart by his son's mysterious death, unravels a web of corporate deceit that feels all too real. There's a rawness to the performances that brings an emotional weight to the narrative. While the direction may not be well-known, the film's atmosphere, punctuated by practical effects, gives it a grounded feel, setting it apart from slicker productions. It’s a bit of a rough ride, but it leaves you questioning the ethics behind medicine long after the credits roll.
