- Synopsis:
GRASS is about the history of a hysteria and the longest-running and most disobeyed prohibition in the history of the USA. It is an epic tale of how Government bureaucrats created a climate which turned and continues to turns literally millions of users, at least technically, into criminals.This film traces the consumption of GRASS, which began as a recreation activity of Hispanic and African minorities, to how it has become a widespread, middle class activity. And it reveals that in spite of continuous and ferocious attempts at repression (and millions and millions of dollars spent to do so), the number of North American pot smokers has risen from 60,000 (at the time it was outlawed) to 30 million today. The world of marijuana comes vibrantly alive in this fact-filled and fascinating story of our love-hate relationship with this resilient weed, also known as grass, pot, or dope. - Actors:
