While California is going bankrupt, one business is booming. “How Weed Won the West” is the story of the growing medical cannabis / marijuana industry in the greater Los Angeles area, with over 700 dispensaries doling out the buds. As a treatment for conditions ranging from cancer and AIDS, to anxiety, ADHD, and insomnia, cannabis is quickly proving itself as a healthier natural alternative to many prescription drugs.
Following the story of Organica, a collective owned by Jeff Joseph that was raided by the DEA in August of ’09, the film shows that although some things have changed with Obama in office, the War on Drugs is nowhere near over. From Kevin Booth, the producer/director of Showtime’s “American Drug War”, “How Weed Won the West” puts California forward as an example to the rest of the country by documenting how legalizing marijuana can help save the economy.
