Square Grouper

About This Movie

Square Grouper offers a vivid snapshot of Miami's 1970s pot smuggling scene, where the characters are as colorful as the vibrant visuals. You've got your classic redneck pirates, these larger-than-life figures who practically jump off the screen. Then there’s the surprisingly earnest portrayal of a ganja-smoking church, which brings a unique perspective to the whole counterculture vibe. The doc also touches on serious themes, like the longest-serving marijuana prisoner in American history, providing a stark contrast to the otherwise laid-back feel. The pacing is relaxed, almost akin to the smoke-filled rooms it depicts. It’s these layers that make it distinctive, blending humor with moments of stark reality, giving you a bit of everything without feeling rushed.
