Synopsis

Marijuana is considered one of the most controversial drugs of the 20th century. Used by generations with little discernible ill effect, it remains a subject of criticism by many governments around the world. In this Genie Award-winning documentary, veteran Canadian director Ron Mann, with narrator Woody Harrelson, combines humor and historical footage to explore how the United States has come to demonize a drug that is generally regarded as relatively harmless.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
