In Australia, two men work to provide the last hope of relief -- and in some cases cure -- for thousands suffering chronic and terminal illnesses. They provide black market medicinal cannabis for people who have nowhere else to turn. The plant is now widely considered to have pain-relieving (and in some cases curative) potential, yet swift and compassionate access is still not an option for many people in need. Their job is to help sick and dying Australians, and by caring for these people, they are forced to risk everything.

3/5
A timely, punchy, highly emotional documentary that takes an uncomfortably close look at the benefits of cannabis oil...Made with conviction and a clear agenda, the film highlights the urgency for such treatments to be made widely available. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Writer-director Ned Donohoe leaves you with a lot of unanswered questions at the end of Green Light. But he has his excuses. Most of the people in the film are risking trouble with the law simply by appearing on screen. Go to Full Review
