SUBSTANCE USE
Patricia Crone, a professor of Islamic history, was diagnosed with lung cancer in November 2011. Preparing herself for the worst, she saw that the National Cancer Institute described some of the chemicals in cannabis as having cancer-fighting potential. Thus Patricia, who had never smoked a puff of pot, started to hunt for marijuana. Accompanied by her sister, filmmaker Diana Frank, she seeks out medical, legal, and scientific experts on her quest to research and employ marijuana’s potential cancer-fighting properties, and to understand its long-standing legal prohibition.
