Beyond the hysteria of Reefer Madness and past the deceptive lessons of �Just Say No�, HIGH exposes the true story of America�s war on drugs. Using government statistics, expert interviews and a large dose of humor, HIGH takes a fresh look at this hot button issue and asks just how much this �war� costs Americans in money, stress, and even lives. There�s a violent drug treatment program that tortured children; an overbearing drug czar that doesn�t care for the people he hurts in his quest; patients who are being denied the medications they need; doctors being prosecuted for trying to help them; and a substance that we all know of, but nobody wants to talk about.
