Here’s a preview for a new weed documentary:
Cash Crop: The Golden State Gone Green (Trailer) from Cash Crop on Vimeo.
Picture yourself in a forest….of weed.
Your skin and clothes are getting sticky from the buds you’re brushing by as you walk through.
And, the smell (mmm, the smell!).
Growers ahead of you are talking about how their friends got raided last week, and how planes keep flying over their property several times a day.
Thinking about the lives of the people who contribute to this $45 billion/year industry, it sinks in that roughly 800,000 people are arrested for marijuana in the U.S. every year. It seems so hard to fathom any criminal intent as you stand in awe of these magnificent, serene gardens and the loving, caring, down-to-earth people who cultivate them.
Cash Crop is an intimate look into the realities of these peoples’ lives and the communities who depend on them. You’ll learn about personal growth, freedom, self government, entrepreneurship, greed, sustainability, and more.
This journey will leave you feeling inspired to uncover more of the real truth behind this plant.
The film is shot (in HD!) to allow you to experience the story first-hand. We decided not to have a narrator directing your thoughts to a pre-determined conclusion, opting instead to let personal stories shine.
For taking this angle, Culture Magazine called it “..a breath of fresh air..”.
We think this lack of bias makes Cash Crop a unique and never-before-seen account into California’s cannabis economy.
We hope you enjoy it!
