American Pot Story: Oaksterdam (2023)

The unknown origin story of how a handful of underdogs risked everything to ignite the current worldwide revolution in cannabis policy. Reflecting Oakland, California's rich history of civil resistance, they opened the first ever cannabis college, Oaksterdam University, and got Prop 19 - a measure to legalize cannabis - on the ballot in California, thus bringing this taboo topic to the mainstream and opening a conversation on its social justice impact. Filmed over a decade, this groundbreaking film illuminates the power of the activist, no matter the cause.
