Movie Synopsis


http://theunionmovie.com

Ever wonder what British Columbia's most profitable
industries are? Logging? Fishing? Tourism? Ever
think to include marijuana? If you haven't,
think again. No longer a hobby for the
stereotypical hippie culture of the ’60s, BC's
illegal marijuana trade industry has evolved
into a seemingly unstoppable business giant,
dubbed by those involved as 'The Union'.
Commanding upwards of $7 billion Canadian annually,
The Union’s roots stretch far and wide, directly
and indirectly affecting all areas of our
society. With 65% to 85% of all 'BC Bud'
being exported to the United States, it's clear
that the BC marijuana trade has become an
international issue with consequences that extend
far beyond our borders. When there are record
profits to be made, who are the players, and
when do their motives become questionable?

-Why is marijuana illegal?
-What health risks do we really face?
-Does prohabition work?
-What would happen if we taxed it?
-Medicine, paper, fuel, textiles, food, etc.
Are we missing something here?

Follow filmmaker Adam Scorgie as he dives
head first into Canada's most socially
acceptable illegal activity. Along the way,
Adam demsytifies the underground market and
brings to light how such a large industry
can function while remaining illegal. By
interviewing experts from around the globe,
including growers, clippers, police officers,
criminalogists, economists, psychologists, medical
doctors, politicians and pop culture icons,
Scorgie explores the cause and effect nature of the
business behind getting high. Nobody's innocent in
this exploration of an industry that may be
profiting more by being illegal. Join Adam
Scorgie as he unravels the mystery of The Union.

IMDB Synopsis:


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1039647/

The basic point of this documentary is to present
the facts about Marijuana. It focuses less on the
BC market and more on the reasons why marijuana
should be viewed in the same light as alcohol and
tobacco. It argues for the legalization of
marijuana. The argument is compelling and factual
with many legititamate sources.

=======================================================

There were only two copies of this movie that I found
out there. The First was an AVI that looked like a
low quality YouTube video. The second was a 1.6GB
WMV. I took the WMV, and ripped it to your typical
700mb DivX video. I also cut the few seconds of the
DVR screen that was on both copies of this movie.

The WMV gave me problems, I had to use like 4
different apps to get this right. So I hope you
enjoy this.

This is the 16x9 WideScreen version of my original
torrent. Original torrent can be found here:

This version has been ran through another few programs,
and the video has been stretched back to 16x9, the
quality may be degrading. But, it is still better
than YouTube quality.

I use the CCCP Project's codec pack. No problems.
I briefly played on a DivX.com codec and there are
problems. If you have problems playing, try using
the codec pack from http://www.cccp-project.net.
This is what I get for using so many programs to
convert something that was probably broken in the first
place.
