Exclusive: Breaking Habits tells the story of California’s Sisters of the Valley.
UK production outfit Salon Pictures has kicked off principal photography on Breaking Habits, a feature documentary about a commune of nuns who run an illegal cannabis farm in the Us.
The collective, called the Sisters of the Valley, operate their business in Merced, California. They were founded by former financial worker Sister Kate, who quit the business and became an activist, adopting the nun persona after dressing in a habit for the 2011 Occupy Wall Street protest.
According to a 2016 Guardian interview, they claim not to follow any traditional religion, and say they are attempting to make the production of a marijuana a “healing industry”.

While online dating has worked for some celebrities, Kate Hudson would rather meet a man the old fashioned way.
On Friday's episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the 37-year-old actress explained why she hasn't considered trying an online dating website after her split from fiance Matthew Bellamy a few years ago.
Watch: Kate Hudson Surprises Sons With Twenty One Pilots Concert
While Hudson acknowledges that "a lot of celebrity types" are doing online dating now, she "can't imagine [it]."
"I think, why don't you just meet a guy at Starbucks?" the mother of two explained. "Why doesn't a guy have the guts to just go up and say, 'Hey, I'm so-and-so. How 'bout we hang out?' Maybe I'm old school."

Hudson later admitted that she might consider the world of online dating when she's older, but she still finds it "weird."

Despite being completely run into the ground and cancelled due to incredibly poor ratings, Channel 5 have seen fit to resurrect the corpse of Big Brother. News has been flooding in this week regarding potential celebrities who are rumored to be appearing on its upcoming revival. Pamela Anderson, Mike Tyson and even Charlie Sheen have all been reported to be in talks with executives to appear on the show.
With the names yet to be officially confirmed, here’s our list of 12 people we’d like to see on Celebrity Big Brother.
David Cameron
Everyone loves the televised grilling of a Politician. What would be better than shoving the Prime Minister into the house to discuss important topical issues with Katie Price.
Probability: Unless Davina McCall has been replaced by Andrew Marr, highly unlikely.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Following the recent scandal over his illegitimate love child, Arnie on Big Brother would make for some excellent television.

Do you know what it feels like in this world, for a boy?
Bonjour, kidlets! Welcome to my spankin’ new column The Teeth. The captain at the helm is none other than Shannon Loughnane. The name shouldn’t currently be synonymous with much aside from a killer impersonation of Lois from Family Guy, and a penchant for starting dinner table skirmishes over the problems with 90210. Starting with the fact that none of them look like high school students.
90210 problems aside, I hope my name does becomee synonymous with a weekly fix of joy (and ah… joyness?) for you, oh beloved AfterElton readers.
So to the particulars: I am 20 years of age. I am Australian. This means A) I have been legally permitted to drink for two years but also B) I have been long-starved of a huge piece of the pop-cultural pie known as North America. However, I am New York-bound!

Stephanie Beacham was the fourth Celebrity to enter the Big Brother house tonight. I say the fourth, we think that she was the first actual star in there.
Stephanie Beacham’s first claim to fame came as a 21-year-old when she was chosen to play a nude scene alongside Marlon Brando. Stephanie has had an extensive film, television and theatre career on both sides of the Atlantic. She was nominated for a Golden Globe (for Sister Kate) and a People’s Choice Award (The Colbys).
In 2007 Stephanie took part in the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing and in early 2009 joined the cast of Coronation Street as Martha, the love interest of Ken Barlow. Stephanie has two daughters and one grandson who she insists calls her “Glamma” rather than Grandma.
Stephanie smoked for 40 years but gave up when George Bush got re-elected reportedly stating ‘I can’t do anything about this...
