The Green Standard

About This Movie

The Green Standard is an interesting take on the cannabis debate—more of a grassroots narrative than a slick documentary. It really captures the pulse of the movement around 2016 when lawmakers were poking around the idea of easing restrictions. The pacing feels more like a conversation with friends rather than a lecture, which gives it a relatable vibe. You get to hear from real people, sharing their experiences and struggles with the stigma surrounding marijuana. It’s raw, it’s real, and it doesn't shy away from the prejudices involved. You can feel the tension and urgency of the moment, making it distinctive in the sea of cannabis documentaries out there.
