this post buried deep in the bowls of RIU, never to be seen again 'cept for me and Grownoob
https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-culture-high-2014.862569/
2 hours of middle class professionals dissing the current anti cannabis laws in the USA, Don't get me wrong is very good 5 star and all, but nothing 'we' here at RIU don't already know from just gleaning the boards
This is the movie that the colonies of the Merica should see, UK, Australia, Chile, even Canada
I've seen their first film The Union, many other pot and drug documentaries and read books by Gabor Matè and Tom Feiling etc. but still Culture High managed to blow my mind.
Like the director Brett Harvey said, Marijuana touches pretty much every issue that is wrong in the world. It's not that legalizing pot would solve all the problems in the world, but it's all the injustices in the world that are actually keeping pot illegal.
And it's not just the topic and the content that makes this film so good. It's technically and storytelling-wise pure gold. These guys aren't really pot activist, they are film makers and at least in the field of documentaries, they are one of the best at the moment. I guess the only reason they aren't more known is because you can't really get critical acclaim in this world by making a movie about pot - yet
This documentary really has potential to inspire change in the world. So thanks guys for incredible work!
