REVIEW: "Your video is great. Thanks to your video our garden is flourishing." Dennis Peron, Medical Marijuana Activist
REVIEW: "We really liked your documentary...We really liked the structure of the video and to be honest it is one of the best that we have seen." Hanf Magazine, Germany
REVIEW: "A must for any cannibis culture
enthusiast.
Cannabis Rising is both educational and informative. A
valuable tool for anyone doing research or informing a parent
or student group. For the novice and the learned alike, this honest
and direct approach to the cannibis culture is eye opening. As
I went on the picturesque tour of Amsterdam and Holland, I got
a sense of peace. Amidst the Drug War insanity the Dutch have
taken the common sense of harm reduction and responsible marijuana
use and produced a society of non-oppressed, non-paranoid citizens.
Throughout the film, both the recreational and medical aspects
of cannabis, combined with the commercial enterprenurial freedom
demonstrates the need for North America to end the Drug War today.
Let the Drug Peace begin" Umberto Iorfida, President N.O.R.M.L.

REVIEW: "Green Mountain Post Film's Cannabis Rising makes one want to expatriate to Amsterdam where as the documentary makes clear, more lenient drug laws make for less drug abuse. Cannabis Rising takes the viewer into the coffee shops of the Netherlands where marijuana and hashish are sold over-the counter, legal and regulated. The film documents its claims and makes a strong case for why the United States ought to follow suit. Cannabis Rising contains more truth than a hundred Partnership for a Drug-Free America ads." Al Giordano, drug policy writer

Very fine show. Being a resident of the US and a visitor to Amsterdam,
it wonderfully illustrates the difference between a govt. that
looks out for it's people and one that considers them property.
Keep up the great work.

Unbelievable show! After watching that show whether you smoke
marijuana or not you will question the laws in America. I hope

people of the world. With time things will change for the better.
