CBD Nation

CBD is a substance contained in hemp plants. Unlike THC it is not intoxicating and does not cause a „high“. In fact, it offers many benefits for the human body and helps heal various health issues. The documentary offers a look into the history of CBD and at its composition and functions. Scientists, doctors and other experts discuss the positive effects of the substance that has been increasingly used in medicine. Personal experiences are recounted by people whose epilepsy, depression or other illnesses have been greatly eased by CBD. The persisting societal taboo surrounding the topic and the gradual popularisation of CBD among the public and on the medicine market are explored also. (Academia Film Olomouc)
