MOVIE: Neurons to Nirvana

 

Vancity Theatre

"Writer, director and visual artist Oliver Hockenhull outlines the mounting peer-reviewed evidence that nonaddictive psychoactive substances (including ayahuasca, psilocybin, LSD and MDMA) can have profound healing effects when used in a safe, therapeutic setting. The benefits, say a conga line of clinicians, psychologists, neuroscientists and authors, extend from the treatment of alcoholism to the anxiety of terminal cancer patients, and beyond. This could have been a snorefest of talking heads in lesser hands, but through judicious editing and sublime visuals, the filmmaker succeeds with colourful advocacy for a new medical paradigm informed by "cognitive liberty" — the freedom to dictate one's own consciousness. "  

Geoff Olson, Vancouver Courier.

The Longer Version of Neurons to Nirvana is screening at the Vancity Theatre On Tuesday April 29th & Thursday May 1st! We are very grateful to have Psychologist and Psychedelic Therapist/Pioneer, Andrew Feldmar in attendance for the May 1st Show and available to engage the audience afterward.
