Weed the People at FilmBar
Weed the People
See the new film from Ricki Lake and Abby Epstein (of Business of Being Born) when Weed The People - The Movie screens Jan 24 only. Presented with support from Phoenix Cannabis Coalition. With a post-screening discussion joined by Mara Gordon (from the film) & Producer Ricki Lake.
Through the emotional stories of children fighting cancer, WEED THE PEOPLE educates mainstream audiences about medical cannabis as a human rights issue.
Cannabis has been off-limits to doctors and researchers in the US for the past 80 years, but recently scientists have discovered its anti-cancer properties. Armed with only these laboratory studies, desperate parents obtain cannabis oil from underground sources to save their children from childhood cancers. “Weed the People” follows these families through uncharted waters as they take their children’s survival into their own hands. Some of their miraculous outcomes beget the unsettling question at the heart of the film: If weed is truly saving lives, why doesn’t the government want people to access it?
