Description
Summary:Patricia was only diagnosed with cancer once it had already spread to her brain. She saw that the National Cancer Institute described marijuana as having cancer-fighting potential. With the grimmest of prognoses, she decided to try it. So Patricia, who had never had as much as a puff of pot, started a hunt for marijuana, and for evidence of its medicinal potential. Shot over the course of a year, from acquiring the marijuana, through labs and brain scans, this film is a document of her own human drug trial.
