Drawing on physicians and researchers, the film examines what is actually known about how cannabis affects the body and where its therapeutic potential may lie. It reviews the evidence alongside the long history of claims and myths that have surrounded the plant. The stated aim is to replace stigma with a fuller picture, and the emphasis falls on cutting through received opinion.
