This Sunday, at 9 p.m. Eastern, (8 p.m. Central, 7 p.m. Mountain, 6 p.m. Pacific, and 4 p.m. Hawaii) Free Speech TV (FSTV) will be premiering the hour-long version of Jed Riffe’s Waiting to Inhale! FSTV is available on DirecTV channel 348 and DISH Network channel 9415. If you subscribe to either of these providers, please check local listings for details.
Waiting to Inhale, a critically acclaimed documentary, examines the debate over marijuana and its use as medicine in the United States. Throughout this open and honest documentary, audiences explore the scientific efficacy of medical marijuana, as well as arguments that marijuana is a “gateway.” Along the way, Waiting to Inhale introduces its audience to patients whose lives are changed for the better by their use of medical marijuana.
Waiting to Inhale, funded in part by the Marijuana Policy Project, was the winner of the CINE Golden Eagle in 2005, winner of the Gold Special Jury Award at Worldfest in Houston in 2005, and was recently screened at the Salem Film Fest in Salem, OR. The Marijuana Policy Project has frequently used screenings of this amazing documentary to help educate both legislators and other opinion leaders, as well as the general public.
If you’re looking for something interesting, thoughtful, and entertaining to watch on Sunday night, I suggest you tune in to Free Speech TV at 9 p.m. (8 p.m Central, 7 p.m. Mountain, 6 p.m. Pacific, and 4 p.m. Hawaii). And feel free to let your friends and family know so that they can tune in as well. You may also want to let your elected officials or local opinion leaders know so that they can learn more about this important issue.
