Prozac Nation

Directed by Erik Skjoldbjærg

Written by Frank Deasy, Elizabeth Wurtzel, Galt Niederhoffer, Larry Gross

When talented young writer Elizabeth Wurtzel earns a scholarship to Harvard, she sees it as her chance to escape the pressures of her working-class background and concentrate on her true talent. But what starts out so promising leads to self-destructive behavior and paralyzing depression that reflects an entire generation's struggle to navigate the effects of divorce, drugs, sex, and high expectations.
