"Waiting to Inhale: Marijuana, Medicine and the Law" is an entertaining educational documentary that examines both sides of the heated debate over medical marijuana in the United States. The film takes viewers inside the lives of seriously ill patients who have benefited from medical marijuana, as well as those who oppose the medical use of marijuana. "Waiting to Inhale" addresses frequently asked questions, such as "Is marijuana really a gateway drug?" and "What evidence is there to support the claim that marijuana can alleviate symptoms of AIDS, cancer and multiple sclerosis?" "Waiting to Inhale" sheds new light on this controversy and presents shocking new evidence that could change the future of medicine.

Please RSVP to kcollins@drugpolicy.org if you are planning to attend this highly anticipated screening.

I hope to see you there!

Sincerely,

Bill Piper
