An hour-long documentary on the modern history and use of psychedelics, from the 1930s to the present day, from the original discovery of indigenous uses and the synthesis of LSD in the 50s, through the sometimes fatal CIA experiments and into the 60s and 70s counter-culture that was followed by the (almost) global ban of all psychedelic substances in the early 70s. The film ends with a section on contemporary research and trials (primarily with psilocybin) for use in the treatments of PTSD, alcoholism, depression, and end-of-life care and cancer support therapy.
