The documentary features the world's leading experts in the field of cannabis scientific research, and follows the emotional stories of several patients who bravely took control of their own medical journeys - often in the face of powerful resistance - to significantly improve their quality of life. Over the last several decades, the US government quietly published numerous studies and reports revealing cannabis to be a safe, non-addictive, effective treatment for depression, nausea, tumor reduction, glaucoma, opiate withdrawals, epileptic seizures, and many other conditions. In 1999 the U.S Department of Health filed patent number 6,630,507 for the use of compounds found inside the cannabis plant - with a strong emphasis on CBD - as a potential treatment for many medical conditions.

- DirectorOrlando von EinsiedelStarsOrlando von EinsiedelFollowing his Oscar winning The White Helmets, Orlando von Einsiedel turns his camera on his own family as they attempt to cope with a devastating loss. When his brother, newly diagnosed as schizophrenic and suffering from intense depression, took his own life at 22, Orlando and his other two siblings buried the trauma, rarely talking about it. Over a decade later, the remaining family set out on a hiking tour, visiting landscapes Evelyn liked to walk, to reflect on his life and death. The result is an intensely personal and moving take on the emotional impact of suicide within a family and a powerful account of the benefits of creating safe spaces for emotional communication. Shot in a subjective style and against the stunning backdrop of the British countryside, Evelyn is an emotionally raw film that documents the difficult, yet rewarding, attempt to navigate the rocky highlands of collective trauma.
