Grass Is Greener

Fab 5 Freddy's directorial debut delves into America's tumultuous connection with cannabis through an uncompromising exploration of its racially charged history. This documentary weaves together a vivid tapestry of interviews, featuring prominent figures and knowledgeable experts alike, shedding light on how marijuana has significantly shaped music and popular culture. However, the film goes beyond mere celebration and delves into the darker side of this story: the deleterious consequences of criminalization on marginalized communities, particularly those of African and Latin American descent. Amidst the ongoing wave of states legalizing cannabis, this documentary serves as a timely reminder of the stark inequalities that persist within the growing market.
