Raw opium, part 1 - SBS1

Recommended Posts

Raw opium, a doco not to be missed!!!!

Sunday 6th March 9.30pm SBS1.

A commodity with tremendous power, the opium poppy is the raw material for heroin, fuelling a vast criminal trade larger than the economies of many countries. Challenging assumptions about addiction and the War on Drugs, Raw Opium looks at how this flower plays a pivotal role - not just in the lives of people who grow, manufacture and use it - but also in the increasingly tense sphere of international relations. (From Canada, in English, Tajiki and Hindi, English subtitles) (Documentary Series) (Part 1 of 2) MA CC

Watched it. Very good doco, its a must watch. Best I've seen on opium itself.

Also makes the case against the war on (some)drugs well.
