Synopsis:

Weed Bandits: This documentary looks into the world of illegal cannabis. The viewer will be taken on a journey across America to meet some of the men and women who grow weed illegally. It's more than a political study concerning Cannabis - Weed Bandits fascinates because of its portrayal of America's best known freethinkers. After Woody Harrelson was arrested and sentenced for growing cannabis in Kentucky, filmmaker Michael Hennig starts a journey across America with the purpose of searching for the demonized and mysterious herb. Whether it's native Americans like the Tiospaye tribe or popular personalities like Woody Harrelson and Ralph Nader - everyone loves this herb. Weed Bandits is a swift movie with a thrilling soundtrack that touches the roots of the current problem in the USA. Drug Wars: Silver or Lead: This fascinating film sheds light on the drug wars being fought in just about every corner of the world, from South America and Asia to Europe and the Middle East. Special features include 'underground' footage taken from notorious gang hangouts, interviews with drug vigilantes and a special short about the execution of Pablo Escobar, the Colombian drug lord who became one of the richest men in the world by smuggling cocaine. Dirty Pictures: Alexander 'Sasha' Shulgin is the scientist behind more than 200 psychedelic compounds including MDMA, more commonly known as Ecstasy. Considered to be one of the the greatest chemists of the twentieth century, Sasha's vast array of discoveries has had a profound impact in the field of psychedelic research. 'Dirty Pictures' delves into the lifework of Dr. Shulgin and scientists alike, explores the world of these scientists; their findings and motivations, their ideas, and their beliefs as to how research in this particular field can aid in unlocking the complexities of the mind.
