Palm Springs Cannabis Film Festival
With an ever-increasing diversity of people proclaiming its many virtues - from the fun and recreational to the medicinal, throughout college dorms and nursing homes - cannabis culture is evolving into the mainstream.
Yet it’s not without debate. Social attitudes, legal opinions, political agendas and medical research often collide.
This new film festival and summit takes on the debate with a progressive attitude towards eroding stereotypes and clichés to discover the life-enhancing potential of this remarkable yet controversial plant.

Our tagline is “What’s Your Culture?”. Cannabis has been and will be an even larger part of our entire world-wide culture as we all recognize its many values:
from agriculture to counter-culture, art, food, film, music, hemp, medicine, recreation and more.
