What if medical cannabis could be a cure to most severe diseases, such as cancer or AIDS? As a matter of fact, molecules inside marijuana are now at the center of medical research around the world. There are more and more scientists, doctors, and psychologists encouraging the therapeutic and controlled use of cannabinoids for specific treatments. While in France the use of this plant remains strictly illegal, the Israeli government authorize the production, sales and utilization of medicinal cannabis – in order to cure serious illness. Several federal states of America have been legalizing it. In some states like Colorado, children and adults suffering from epilepsy crises or multiple sclerosis can find some relief thanks to this special drug.

In Stealthcare, VICE embeds with illegal growers and the patients they service, exploring the issues surrounding access to medicinal cannabis. These growers, essentially cannabis enthusiasts, often donate their product for little or no cost, at great personal risk. Scarred by jealous drug dealers, police raids and government persecution, these “Compassion Clubs” are forced to operate on the black market where they can deliver the medicine to sufferers.
