Movie Synopsis

http://theunionmovie.com



Ever wonder what British Columbia's most profitable

industries are? Logging? Fishing? Tourism? Ever

think to include marijuana? If you haven't,

think again. No longer a hobby for the

stereotypical hippie culture of the ’60s, BC's

illegal marijuana trade industry has evolved

into a seemingly unstoppable business giant,

dubbed by those involved as 'The Union'.

Commanding upwards of $7 billion Canadian annually,

The Union’s roots stretch far and wide, directly

and indirectly affecting all areas of our

society. With 65% to 85% of all 'BC Bud'

being exported to the United States, it's clear

that the BC marijuana trade has become an

international issue with consequences that extend

far beyond our borders. When there are record

profits to be made, who are the players, and

when do their motives become questionable?



-Why is marijuana illegal?

-What health risks do we really face?

-Does prohabition work?

-What would happen if we taxed it?

-Medicine, paper, fuel, textiles, food, etc.



Are we missing something here?



Follow filmmaker Adam Scorgie as he dives

head first into Canada's most socially

acceptable illegal activity. Along the way,

Adam demsytifies the underground market and

brings to light how such a large industry

can function while remaining illegal. By

interviewing experts from around the globe,

including growers, clippers, police officers,

criminalogists, economists, psychologists, medical

doctors, politicians and pop culture icons,

Scorgie explores the cause and effect nature of the

business behind getting high. Nobody's innocent in

this exploration of an industry that may be

profiting more by being illegal. Join Adam

Scorgie as he unravels the mystery of The Union.



IMDB Synopsis:

The basic point of this documentary is to present

the facts about Marijuana. It focuses less on the

BC market and more on the reasons why marijuana

should be viewed in the same light as alcohol and

tobacco. It argues for the legalization of

marijuana. The argument is compelling and factual

with many legititamate sources.
