The God Plant
Documentary109 min
Cannabis is the subject of this globe-spanning documentary, which starts with the origins of the endocannabinoid system in simple sea life and follows the plant through its early uses, medical applications, and present-day legalization campaigns. Interview subjects including Steve DeAngelo and Charlotte Caldwell guide the film through science, history, and public policy, connecting research on the plant to arguments about healthcare, taxation, and community funding. The focus moves from biology to law and back again, framing cannabis as both a medicinal resource and a flashpoint in modern reform debates.
