ABOUT THE FILM

WAYFARER STUDIOS presents THC INC — an independent documentary exploring the history of cannabis, from prohibition through decriminalization and legalization. It delves into the legal and public health effects on individuals, minorities, communities, and particularly children. The film examines how youth are impacted by changes in cannabis laws, addressing concerns such as increased exposure and potential targeting by marketing efforts.

 

The documentary culminates in posing the question of "Where do we go from here?" while hoping to offer some possible options. Extremists on both sides of the issue propose either rolling things back to prohibition or the opposite: complete legalization with no oversight. Maybe there’s a more level-headed approach somewhere in the middle; an approach that wouldn’t end with people in prison for minor offenses but would also educate the public on possible hazards and protect children from being marketed to.
