Title: 

Medical marijuana documentary, Code of the West, screening in Albuquerque this weekend

Message: 

If you're near the Albuquerque area, you’ll have two opportunities to catch Code of the West, a new documentary exploring the state of medical marijuana in Montana, this weekend.

Set against the sweeping vistas of the Rockies, the steamy lamplights of marijuana grow houses, and the bustling halls of the State Capitol, Code of the West follows the 2011 Montana State Legislature as it debates the fate of medical marijuana. Once a pioneer in legalizing medical marijuana, Montana considers becoming the first state in the nation to repeal its medical marijuana law. Code of the West tells the story of both the legislative process and the human lives and emotions behind it.

What: Code of the West

Where: Guild Cinema, 3405 Central Ave NE, Albuquerque

When:

Saturday, March 16th, 1:30 p.m., followed by Q&A with Finn Selander, Former DEA Agent, Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP)

Sunday, March 17th, 1:30 p.m., followed by Q&A with Chris Hsu – New Mexico Medical Cannabis Patients Alliance (NM-MCPA), Tricia Monaghan – attorney and medical cannabis activist, and a staff member from the Drug Policy Alliance's (DPA) New Mexico Office
